Hello,
some kind of general announcement:

Any chance of you building it, sometime before opensuse 11.1?
I provide for testing HPLIP version 2.8.7
Wow! :-))
The packages are * only for testing * without any guarantee or warranty * without any support As an extreme example, this means that if your complete computer center crashes because of these packages, it is only your problem.
I know the drill :-) Ok, I installed and it worked. So far so good. Nothing exploding here, so far. All four "flavours". I had to reinstall all of them because because the device uri had changed in between and because cups reported the old drivers in the configuration. Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet cp1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.7.3 Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP1510 Series Postscript (recommended) Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet cp3505 Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.7.3 Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP3505 Postscript (recommended) Notice that both 1510 and 1515 are the same model: that's why your search/grep did not find the ppd in factory. I have four settings because the 1515's have too few options (some are missing, like resolution in postscript), and the 3505's have to many, some of them the printer do not have (like three trays or duplex). I also browsed the install CD, but I did not see any ppd file. Most are compressed cab files and exes, so probably I will not see anything unless I install it for windows - and my windows is too old to cope, I'm afraid (Win-Me).
The version number 2.8.7 is higher than the version of the original packages in openSUSE 10.2 10.3 or 11.0 so that you may have to remove installed hplip-2.8.7 and hplip-hpijs-2.8.7 packages manually using (as root)
Wouldn't it be possible to keep your old version in the repo? - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
