[Bug 815973] Re: The "Printers" applet from the Gnome 3 control panel should be removed from Oneiric

 

This is a matter of not shipping or hiding /usr/share/applications
/gnome-printers-panel.desktop. Rodrigo, can you please add this to the
next upload? Thanks!

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu Oneiric)

Title:
  The "Printers" applet from the Gnome 3 control panel should be removed
  from Oneiric

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Oneiric:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently in Oneiric, if the search string "Print" is typed into the
  Dash, both the "Printers" and "Printing" applets are returned.

  In Oneiric the  "Printers" applet from the Gnome 3 control panel
  should be removed completely to avoid confusion.  This decision was
  made in the following blueprint:

  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-system-config-
  printer-vs-gnome-3-control-center

  More background about the reasons for this decision is available in
  the following bug report:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654742

  -----------------------------------------
  Desired solution:

  1. Completely remove the Gnome 3 "Printers" applet from Oneiric
  2. Add the "Printing" applet to the Oneiric System Settings window.
