Hello,
Suddenly my HP systray stops disappeared and stopped to work then I miss the practical HP icon to manage my HP printer.
By running the install script sh ./hplip-3.19.1.run it stop on a missing dependency which in addition seems to be not available into opensuse repos.
RE-CHECKING DEPENDENCIES ------------------------
|Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 error: A required dependency 'pyqt4-dbus
(PyQt 4 DBus - DBus Support for PyQt4)' is still missing.
Qt4 is end-of-life since 2015. HPLIP can use Qt5, not sure why their installer even *tries* do use Qt4.
Also, HPLIP is part of openSUSE, you should probably use that one.
agree and "it works for me" using openSUSE packages.
NOTE: one should prefer openSUSE packages for their particular distro unless they are reallllly familiar with what is required. some exceptions are possible but many will cause you un-needed heartache and concern.
OR: build your own packages on YOUR environment. quite a bit of work when acceptable packages are available.
The fact is that before of the latest TW updates the HPLIP 3.19.1 installed by its shell script was working perfectly on my system, then something has been "broken" *after* the most recent TW updates.
The HPLIP oficial script version is also more recent in respect to the rpm package available on official openSUSE repository:
3.19.1 vs. 3.18.6-1.4
In addition the openSUSE version for me had a problem: user was not permitted to disable/enable the printer from the hp-management interface and it was a blocking issue for my usage so, to finalize, the HPLIP script for me was the best solution and the favorite choice.
you have control of your system, provide access for <user> if you cannot figure another way, configure sudo it was not Tw updates that broke, it was a script not intended for the Tw environment you maintain. you might as well be installing apps for debian or ..., they are NOT MEANT for your system. fwiw, the openSUSE hplip build will always or nearly so, be less than HP's. openSUSE people do not see it until after HP releases it. they must make it fit Tw, ie: not break as you have experienced. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
