Description Lukas Ruzicka 2019-09-09 14:03:13 UTC 
Description of problem:

I want to configure a remote printer on my Fedora 31 system. On this machine, I am using the US keyboard layout, which I am not used to, so I produce a lot of typos. Such a typo prevents me from adding a new remote printer to the system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-control-center-3.33.90-1.fc31.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Gnome-Control-Center.
2. Navigate to Devices - Printers.
3. Click "Add"
4. Type "socket>" into the search field (another string like "socket#" works too).
5. Application crashes with an error.

Actual results:

The application crashes with the above non-sense written in the search field.

Expected results:

The application lets the user correct any typos that they might have produced while typing.

Additional info:

Without the typo, when I write "socket:", the application behaves as expected.

===== The reported error: ======
    GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 15:43:09.523: Invalid URI 'none://socket>:9100'
    ​
    (gnome-control-center:11183): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 15:43:09.523: Invalid URI 'none://socket>:515'

Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2019-09-09 14:05:48 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 31-beta by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because:

 I know that this is somehow weak, but I am suggesting it as a blocker, because Gnome-Control-Center is a "core application" and behaviour like that is really annoying.
Comment 2 Geoffrey Marr 2019-09-09 19:08:52 UTC 
Discussed during the 2019-09-09 blocker review meeting: [0]

The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedFreezeException" and an "AcceptedBlocker" was made as it violates the following criterion:

"All elements of the default panel (or equivalent) configuration in all release-blocking desktops must function correctly in typical use"

We accept this as an FE as long as the fix is clean.

Comment 9 Kamil Páral 2019-10-03 08:54:34 UTC 
Well, the dialog no longer crashes. But that's because the whole search box is now non-functional. I can no longer search for printers at my company's CUPS server. Previously, when I input "cups.brq.redhat.com" into the search field, a "Searching for printers" text appeared in the dialog title and my company printers appeared. Now when I input the same string, there is no "Searching for printers" displayed and nothing happens, no printers appear. There is nothing printed into the system journal. The search bar now seems completely dead, not sending any events. That doesn't feel like an improvement from the previous state :-)
Comment 10 Lukas Ruzicka 2019-10-03 10:50:41 UTC 
Yes, same situation happens for me, however I am not even getting the "Searching for printers" text after the first searching takes place.

When I click on ADD, it starts to search for the printers in my neighbourhood and comes up with some PDF printers taken from my own cups server, but when I use the box to write an address where to search for more and press ENTER, nothing really happens.

I am on gnome-control-center-3.34.0.1-2.fc31.x86_64.
