@Gotit: I presume you are on Arch Linux and have base-devel group installed? How did you build the package? The snapshot with "makepkg -si" or any AUR-helpers?

The HPLIP website has contact info for developers only. Lacking a better way, I did contact them there, and was redirected to Launchpad.
My bug report is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1910146
On other news, I suggest this as the bugs URL:

I thing a good replacement for https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/node/309 is https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/binary_plugin.html

"Upstream URL: http://hplipopensource.com/node/309" is outdated. 404 here

@andmars Thank you for your answer.
However, you can see that the current hplip version in extra is 3.20.9-2 : https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/hplip/
and the last update of hplip-plugin is 3.20.9-3

@kuluse: That is indeed strange since I ONLY update hplip-plugin when there is a new version of hplip in [extra] (see my pinned comment). What servers do you use in your /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist? Maybe you are on an outdated server? Maybe: https://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/

Hello, thank you for maintaining this package !
I have a question thought : since hplip-plugin needs to match the exact version number of hplip in order to work properly, why don't wait the new version of hplip comes in extra before updating hplip-plugin on aur ?
I mean everytime I update hplip-plugin I can't print until there is an update of hplip (some weeks !).
It was very anoying because I didn't know what the problem was but now I know that's ok, I don't update hplip-plugin if hplip is not updated.
Sorry for the naive question but I'm really wondering (no offense at all !)
leonardof commented on 2020-11-16 13:08 (UTC)
@argymeg, it might be, but I don't know. It might be that something in the hplip-plugin blob ought to be fixed to better match hplip. Maybe that fix works for the networked model but would break the not networked one?
Although, to be honest, I can't find instructions on how to report bugs in the URL provided by the hplip package, either.
argymeg commented on 2020-11-15 21:40 (UTC)
@leonardof: Unless I'm misreading the proposed fix, the file that needs to be edited belongs to the hplip package from the repos, therefore isn't directly related to this package, so I'd try the source URL from there.

Hey, I've adopted this package and applied some of the suggestions:
libusb-compatandsane(cred @ZhandHua).Depend on exact version ofhplip(cred @jsn42).In addition, the PGP-signature of the artifact is now checked, which means you need to fetch upstream's key:
Unfortunately, I have no HP printer at home so my testing ability is limited to running
hp-diagnose_plugin. If someone has better opportunity to test and is interested in maintaining, let me know and I'll handover the package or add you as a co-maintainer. Cheers!
