Hm, nevermind the .desktop complaint - the .desktop file is present in hplip 1.6.7. Try with 1.6.7? Ok, I think what happened is: I had hplip 1.6.7 installed, and it created the conf file. Then, I reinstalled my system, and installed an older hplip, which didn't understand the new file. So hplip 1.6.7 works with that file, of course. But, the crashing problem still occurs if I add an invalid line like "foo" - which, in my opinion, is still a bug. Especially if you start hp-toolbox from the K menu - it doesn't start, and there's no feedback at all. Other programs deal with config problems more gracefully. For example, KWrite will print an error: Invalid entry (missing '=') at /home/dima/.kde3.5/share/config/kwriterc:4 but it will still run. Graceful fallback needs to be requested upstream, apparently is works w/ valid config file. |
