Unhappy Can't add a new CUPS printer


Hi,

I running a RedHat AS3 (academic edition) and while I did add several printers right after I
installed the software, now the gui refuses to run. When I invoke redhat-config-printer, I
get the following error output:

[root]# redhat-config-printer
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/redhat-config-printer-gui", line 7, in ?
import queueTree
File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 33, in ?
import printconf_conf
File "/usr/share/printconf/util/printconf_conf.py", line 83, in ?
from xml.utils import qp_xml
File
"/usr/src/build/219081-i386/install/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/_xmlplus/utils/qp_xml.py",
line 23, in ?
ImportError: cannot import name pyexpat

NOTE: There is no /usr/src/build path on any of my systems

I ran up2date to make sure I was current, and even rebooted the machine to no avail. I
have 5 other systems that I can add printers on, and they all have the same rpm's installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rob
