Yes.


The issue is known, see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=Pine.LNX.4.64.0702121329460.27799%40nelson.suse.de&forum_name=hplip-help
--------------------------------------------------------------------
For completeness the 'hp-check -g' output below which shows
another problem:

hp-check checks for compile-time requirements (e.g. header files
and a C compiler) but im my case (have RPMs installed) I need
only run-time requirements (e.g. libraries) but only in debug mode
it becomes clear what the result of a check for a compile-time
requirement is and what for a run-time requirement check.

Therefore I suggest to provide an additional switch to
let hp-check show only run-time requirements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

This switch should be already implemented, see
http://hplip.sourceforge.net/tech_docs/man_pages/check.html
i.e. the default should be runtime dependencies and only
with "-p" the compile-time dependencies should be tested.

But it seems it is still a bit buggy.

Using HPLIP 2.7.7 on openSUSE 10.2 i386 hardware I get those
failed "required" dependencies:
----------------------------------------------------------------
# hp-check -t
...
Checking for dependency: libjpeg - JPEG library...
error: NOT FOUND! This is a REQUIRED dependency.
Please make sure that this dependency is installed before
installing or running HPLIP.
To install this dependency, execute this command:
xterm -e su -c "yast --install libjpeg-devel"

Checking for dependency: libnetsnmp-devel - SNMP networking
 library development files...
error: NOT FOUND! This is a REQUIRED dependency.
Please make sure that this dependency is installed before
installing or running HPLIP.
To install this dependency, execute this command:
xterm -e su -c "yast --install net-snmp-devel"
...

# rpm -qa | egrep 'libjpeg|net-snmp'
net-snmp-5.4.rc2-4
libjpeg-6.2.0-771
----------------------------------------------------------------
By chance I have openssl-devel installed so that I don't
get another false alarm.


Kind Regards
