Description IroNiQ 2005-03-27 19:39:07 CEST
I wanted to set up my printer under 4.2.1 and I got this message:
** ERROR **: Unable to load printing system module cups_plugin.so

I made this package, so I've known, the file was at the right place... I've run
with strace and i've seen that I had been right: the file was found. But instead
of this, writes the message above. I asked my friend to start the program and he
got the quiet the same message, but the file_plugin.so was missing.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 




I can send the strace output on Tuesday, because I'm not at my machine.

Fixed in ubuntu 7 hours before hoary release :) The Makefile.in files for both
xfprint4 and xfprint-manager need -Wl,-E added to the LDFlags so they export
their symbols to the plugin.
The error was (not printed though) that cups_plugin.so could not resolve various
symbols which it called in the two executables.
