Description Alex Loginov 2014-11-21 21:34:45 CET

Description of problem: if run any:
/usr/bin/headalign.sh
/usr/bin/headclean.sh
/usr/bin/hidecartridges.sh
/usr/bin/showcartridges.sh
/usr/bin/lx.control.sh
from lxcontrol pkg in KDE, then you will see "Sorry, couldn't find lpc command."

Arch Linux has lpc in cups pkg, Alt Linux - in lprng pkg, OpenSuse - in cups-client pkg, Ubuntu - in cups-bsd.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lxcontrol-1.3-18.mga5.noarch.rpm


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install lxcontrol
2. run 
/usr/bin/headalign.sh
/usr/bin/headclean.sh
/usr/bin/hidecartridges.sh
/usr/bin/showcartridges.sh
/usr/bin/lx.control.sh

Try to run them as root...

Is that how these scripts are supposed to be used?

lpc is in /usr/sbin/ provided by cups-common and foomatic-db-engine

I have no Lexmark for tests, but under root lpc was found.

lxcontrol should work under user, because of
Exec=/usr/bin/headalign.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/headclean.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/hidecartridges.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/showcartridges.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/lx.control.sh
in desktop files

ln -s /usr/sbin/lpc /usr/bin/lpc
is solution (to add symlink /usr/bin/lpc in cups pkg).

Can I resolve this bug? What's the issue?

Shlomi, to find place where to add symlink.

Why should lpc be under /usr/bin ? ISn't it good enough that it's under /usr/sbin ?

Comment 6 Alex Loginov 2014-12-25 09:31:28 CET

lxcontrol should work under user, because of
Exec=/usr/bin/headalign.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/headclean.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/hidecartridges.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/showcartridges.sh
Exec=/usr/bin/lx.control.sh
in desktop files
