Check the version of the python3-requests package that you have installed.  If it is 2.6.0, run "urpmi --downgrade python3-requests" to fix it (it should be 2.3.0).
Comment 6 Rémi Verschelde 2015-03-19 21:43:54 CET
As discussed in today's QA meeting, this bugfix is indeed cause by the faulty python3-requests update that David mentioned in comment 5.

It won't affect new users and the current and future ISOs are not affected either, only users who updated their cauldron at the wrong time will face this issue.

yes downgrading the python3 version did work.

close it.
Comment 8 William Kenney 2015-03-20 15:14:14 CET
[root@localhost wilcal]# urpmi python3-requests
Package python3-requests-2.3.0-5.mga5.noarch is already installed

Printing, local and from the LAN, is working fine here with the above package.
Also MCC -> Hardware -> Set up the printer(s) opens just fine.
