I removed two dependencies to test the proposed workaround. Besides: The
correct path of the file is /usr/share/hplip/base/password.py.
Now the hp-doctor asked for the sudoer´s password. But: the installation
of the missing dependencies failed.
ENTER SUDO PASSWORD
-------------------
Please enter the sudoer (reinhard)'s password:
Do you want to update repository and Install missing/incompatible
packages. (a=install all*, c=custom_install, s=skip):a
Updating repository
-------------------
Installing Missing/Incompatible packages
----------------------------------------
cmd =libssl-dev
error: Failed to install 'libssl-dev' package, please install manually.
cmd =libsane-dev
error: Failed to install 'libsane-dev' package, please install manually.
Do you think this error results of a follow-up configuration problem in
another file?
I will send a bug report to the hplip developers. If there are any
solutions I will post them here.
