By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description James 2009-03-11 19:35:38 CDT
/opt/kde3/bin/kaddprinterwizard, from kdelibs4c2a-kde3, when doing ¨Printer Test¨, generates the error ¨/bin/bash: cupsdoprint: command not found¨.

Now, cupsdoprint was installed from kdelibs4c2a-kde3 at /opt/kde3/bin/cupsdoprint, so I think I have a PATH problem.  Is /opt/kde3/bin/ suppose to be explicitly in the PATH environment variable?  And if so, how is it suppose to get there?

It should be loaded into the PATH when startkde is run.  startkde is run whenever a user logs in to KDE3.5.

If you are attempting to access a KDE3.5 program from a different desktop environment, you may have to manually set the PATH and KDEDIR environment variables.

If this was done from within KDE3.5, can you go to Konsole and post the output of "env" (without the quotes)?

Thanks!

Ok, I corrected my .profile PATH variable, and it seems to work now.  Hopefully, that is all it was.

Closing this as the original reporter is no longer affected by this bug.
