Hey, I've adopted this package and applied some of the suggestions:

  • Add missing dependencies, notably libusb-compat and sane (cred @ZhandHua).
  • Depend on exact version of hplip (cred @jsn42).

In addition, the PGP-signature of the artifact is now checked, which means you need to fetch upstream's key:

gpg --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 4ABA2F66DBD5A95894910E0673D770CDA59047B9

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!

@DanielH Please import the PGP-key as the pinned comment suggests.

@argymeg, Ah I see, thanks the explanation. My bad for not reading the comments thoroughly enough. Reverted in 3.23.12-3.

@carsme, thank you sincerely for taking on this package, but please, consider rolling back your second change. This keeps coming back every year or so - as @Anty0 responded when @jsn42 suggested this, and as I responded when another user suggested it previously, this has been tried before and needed to be reverted as this breaks upgrades of hplip, requiring the user to remove hplip-plugin, upgrade hplip, then re-install hplip-plugin. Certainly a more disruptive problem than the one this aims to solve.

I have a HP Laserjet Pro MFP M148fdw printer that requires the hplip plugin. It prints and scans like a charm with hplip-plugin 3.23.12-2. I can only test the released plugin, have no time to work on it.

Why can't this package be transferred to the official repository?

ZhangHua commented on 2024-01-13 11:27 (UTC)

file usr/share/hplip/scan/plugins/bb_orblite-x86_64.so requires libusb-0.1.so.4 but it is gone in libusb 1.0.24-2 which is updated today, the workaround is using libusb-compat which provides libusb-0.1.so.4

Installed:

yay -Qs hplip
local/hplip 1:3.23.5-1
local/hplip-plugin 3.23.5-1

When trying to scan via simple-scan, it still requires plugin and refuses to scan. At the same time XSane does scan without issues.
