Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

I try to add a printer in the following way:

- Open printer configuration
- Select 'New printer' from dropdown box
- Select 'Windows printer via Samba'
- Hit button 'Browse'

The server(s) on which the printers reside do show up, but when trying
to expand the tree view to show the attached printer(s), nothing shows
up.

Workaround is to manually give the complete URL, in my case, something
like 'MSHOME/LIN01/hp-photosmart'; then the printer connects and is
working as expected.

This was working OK in Jaunty, so it can be considered as a regression
bug.
