hplip need to be upgraded

Postby Provia » Sun Dec 16, 2012 18:46

I've noticed that there is a bug(i think already know) in current version of hplip (3.12.9). The hp-toolbox can't get opened. The newer version of the driver should resolve this problem so i ask if it's possible to upgrade it.

Has been discussed recently: HPLIP Status Service TrayIcon
There's a workaround (deleting the hplip config file) which makes it possible to open hp-toolbox.

The bug has been reported too: Bug 3750 - HP Device Manager wont start
Hopefully the new version is in entropy soon. If you can't wait emerge it from portage.

If you would like to make a package request use the Bugzilla, the Forum is not the right place.
