The package presented problems even when downloading, so anyone who wants to adopt it is welcome. Pacman does not support .asc via zip and I would have to create a script for this, which I did. But the installation fails.

HP seems to have changed how they serve the sources as far as I can tell:
Not really interested in looking into this, so I'm disowning the package.

@Ozman:
The https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository is not a pacman repository.
You will have to build this package with makepkg, then install it with pacman -U . Check the link (and pages it links to) for more info .
Tried to install this today: sudo pacman -Syu hplip-plugin
error: target not found: hplip-plugin
@john999 I fixed the problem by downloading the current snapshot and building the package by myself (makepkg).

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!
