system-config-printer-1.5.7-5.mga6.i586
system-config-printer-applet-1.5.7-5.mga6.i586
system-config-printer-udev-1.5.7-5.mga6.i586
system-config-printer-libs-1.5.7-5.mga6.noarch
system-config-printer-1.5.7-5.mga6.x86_64
system-config-printer-applet-1.5.7-5.mga6.x86_64
system-config-printer-udev-1.5.7-5.mga6.x86_64
@ Anyone reading this:
* If this bug is valid for you in cauldron, then please test whether updating your system-config-printer packages to version 1.5.7-5.mga6 fixes the problem and report back in this bug report.
* If you do not have this bug in cauldron, but you do run cauldron, then please update those packages, too, and report in bug 18367 whether they work as expected.CC:

pkg-bugs I have the same printer. If betatests have to be done for MGA 6 and 5, please let me know CC:

ubuntu @Markus: there is problem on mga6 too? If yes please above set Version to 6 and add "MGA5TOO" in the Whiteboard field. If you know it is valid in Cauldron, set Version to Cauldron and add "MGA5TOO" and "MGA6TOO" in the Whiteboard field. Should work according to http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Brother/Brother-HL-5450DN Optimally the goal is to make it work with Mageia packages, but as workaround to get it running maybe use manufacturers drivers here: http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=eu_ot&lang=en&prod=hl5450dn_all&os=93 Brother Linux info: http://support.brother.com/g/s/id/linux/en/index.html http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=eu_ot&lang=en&prod=hl5450dn_all&os=127 CC:

==> Looks as if this package is already integrated into Mageia repos.
'20130226 (RPM for LSB 3.2)' can be downloaded, but no ppd file for Brother-HL-5450DN contained.

Severity:
minor =>
normal Found the ppd file as well as the filter script: https://github.com/illwieckz/debian_copyist_brother/blob/master/material/sources/hl5450dncupswrapper-3.0.0-1/PPD/brother-HL-5450DN-cups-en.ppd https://github.com/illwieckz/debian_copyist_brother/blob/master/material/sources/hl5450dncupswrapper-3.0.0-1/filter/brother_lpdwrapper_HL5450DN Maybe we could put the pieces together to get a working driver?

Whiteboard:
MGA5TOO =>
MGA7TOO Mageia 6 is no longer supported. If you still need to upgrade to Mageia 7: a safe way would be to use a netinstall ISO http://doc.mageia.org/netinstall/7/en/content/index.html and then select to upgrade in the "Install or Upgrade" step. |
