See the RPM changelog: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Aug 14 2008 jsmeix@suse.de - Removed the hplip init script which is obsolete since version 2.8.4 where hpssd is gone and replaced by hp-systray, see Novell/Suse Bugzilla bnc#390663. . . . * Thu Apr 03 2008 jsmeix@suse.de - Updated to version 2.8.4: Elimination of all persistent startup daemons. The last daemon hpssd has been replaced with hp-systray. ... - Adapted the hplip init script to provide backward compatibility: It still exists to avoid that printer/scanner setup tools fail when they try to enable the "hplip" service but all it does is to stop a possibly running hpssd. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The original hplip-2.8.4 RPM in openSUSE 11.0 contained a dummy init script to provide backward compatibility, see bug #390663 (and I never got a problem report because of this dummy init script). I didn't check the RPM's install/update magic in detail but perhaps on your machine the old dummy init script is still present because you did "rpm -i" instead of "rpm -U"? On the other hand, even if the old dummy init script is still present it should not cause a problem because all it does is to try to stop the hpssd. Perhaps you got an error message because it cannot stop hpssd e.g. simply because no hpssd was running an then there is a "FAILED" error message but as far as I see the return code of the dummy init script is always 0 because I have an explicite "return 0" therein. I didn't try to reproduce it (I will not install openSUSE 11.0 only for such a test) and currently I do not understand what exactly went wrong on your system but from my point ov view it seems an invalid bug caused by "rpm -i" instead of "rpm -U" and I close it accordingly. Even if there were a bug for openSUSE 11.0 I would close it with "wontfix" for openSUSE 11.0 because it is already "fixed" for openSUSE 11.1 where the whole init script stuff is gone. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
