HPLIP 1.6.12 packages built for Suse Linux 10.1 and openSUSE 10.2
for 32-bit Intel compatible (i586) and for 64-bit AMD (x86_64)
are available for testing and only for testing at
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.1/
and
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.2/

For Suse Linux 10.1 there are incompatibilities with our
official HPLIP packages for Suse Linux 10.1.
Be prepared that your existing configuration may no longer work
with the new packages and/or that there may be no YaST support
for the new packages, see for example
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=184798
Note the "unsupported" and read the README:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.1/RPMS/README

For openSUSE 10.2 there are no known incompatibilities.
Nevertheress also for openSUSE 10.2 we do not provide support
for those packages, read the README:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.2/RPMS/README

You may inform the Packman people at least to test the PPDs
before packaging them.
