Lost of authentification in CUPS 1.2rc3

[Alexander Kern]

Hello,

I'm not too far from full success. Last trouble on the way to full support for 
CUPS 1.2 is unability to add printer as normal user in "kaddprinterwizard". 
It works like a charm if I run it "sudo". Last trace in non-working case 
says...

Comments in file kmcupsmanager.cpp make me suspect
	else
	{
		req.setOperation(CUPS_ADD_PRINTER);
		// only set the device-uri if needed, otherwise you may loose          
authentification           <---------???
		// data (login/password in URI's like smb or ipp).
		KMPrinter	*otherP = findPrinter(p->printerName());
		if (!otherP || otherP->device() != p->device())

is anyone here, who wrote this? What it means?

P.S. All previous troubles are gone. I can create and manage printers via WEB 
interface on i386 and x86-64 without any problems.
