Title:
hp-install requires sudo
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I just finish setting up a new LaserJet (Hardware info attached) and had some
trouble installing the binary driver.
Ubuntu itself didn't ask me to do so and just listed the driver as working -
but this is probably not a hplip-error.
I finally encountered the "hp-setup" command, which though failed to
install the driver. [error: The printer you are trying to setup
requires a binary driver plug-in and it failed to install. Please
check your internet connection and try again. Visit
http://hplipopensource.com for more infomation.]
I don't know what this error massages is talking about, the internet
works without any problems.
At last I read in some forum "sudo hp-setup" and indeed everything
installed correctly. Printer works perfectly.
Conclusion: This is similar to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hplip/+bug/302627, but what I would
ask for this time is:
Add a gksudo to hp-setup or forbid running it as normal user (like apt-get).
