Bug Description

Just crash after click on authenticate in printer jobs list

[Impact]

The functionality of authenticating jobs in the queue is not available due to this bug.

[Test case]

Print a job to a queue which requires authentication. Then call the job viewer and try to authenticate the waiting job. The jobviewer will crash.

The proposed package prevents this crash allowing to authenticate the job.

[Regression Potential]

Very low, as the patch is trivial.

First the patch is a trivial, one-line fix and second, I am using the fixed Utopic package on my Utopic and Trusty machines already for several weeks without sign of a regression. Therefore I am marking this fix as verified.
