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!

I was getting this error on install: ``` ==> Starting prepare()... hplip-3.15.4-plugin.run: line 314: exec: -t: invalid option exec: usage: exec [-cl] [-a name] [command [arguments ...]] [redirection ...] ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare(). Aborting... ``` From looking at hplip*run, it requires xterm. `pacman -S xterm` fixes the problem. (Or just make sure your xterm alternative can handle `-title`; i.e. with single dash).

I turned off checking. I changed this: source=("http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin/hplip-$pkgver-plugin.run" "http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin/hplip-$pkgver-plugin.run.asc") sha1sums=('874d668f98fba49919f8904e8d844d0ec69d3e96' 'SKIP') validpgpkeys=('4ABA2F66DBD5A95894910E0673D770CDA59047B9') # hplip@hp.com to this: source=("http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin/hplip-$pkgver-plugin.run") sha1sums=('874d668f98fba49919f8904e8d844d0ec69d3e96') # validpgpkeys=('4ABA2F66DBD5A95894910E0673D770CDA59047B9') # hplip@hp.com

@PostBlue It looks as if you successfully installed the package. Can you please elaborate and explain. Thanks!

@jackpot The message seems to be clear : gpg have no keyserver available where to search for the key. Try "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 73D770CDA59047B9", it should be better.

Incorporated grawity's suggestions. So running this command might be necessary: "gpg --recv-keys 73D770CDA59047B9 && gpg --lsign-key 73D770CDA59047B9"

@ chris2kari please remove your comments since they address a non-existing problem. I keep the version numbers of hplip-plugin equal to hplip from arch's repos.

chris2kari commented on 2015-05-10 00:55 (UTC)

Yeah, tried nuking the database lock file & forcing a resync etc.. Package versions change quickly so simple clear instructions left here to help other stuck with the problem going forward.
