Title:
  update-notifier-hp-firmware upstart job doesn't make sense in update-
  notifier; port to systemd

Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  update-notifier ships a debian/update-notifier-hp-firmware.conf
  upstart job. Ideally a such job should be included in the package it's
  interacting with, hplip in this case.

  We are also converting the user session to be using systemd so
  basically it means hplip should be including an systemd user job (if
  that's still something needed)

  Doing that under systemd is probably best done using a udev rules
  triggering a systemd service
