I've prepared an update candidate which fixes this regression and
additionally contains fixes for two other unrelated crashes.
As you are the one with the only affected model so far, i'd like
to ask you if you could please help validating the update candidate.
This one is it: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2816
Instructions for testing can be found here:

Thank you. I am looking at this tonight.

They are quite basic instructions on the old wiki, the new improved wiki is being worked on now.

In short, you need to be able to update from the Core Updates Testing media which is not generally desirable so is disabled by default. To be able to select Core Updates Testing as an update media you need to use "expert" mode.

To do so, as root, use: drakrpm-edit-media --expert

You can then place a tick in the Updates and Enable columns for Core Updates Testing.

You might get an error to do with a new msec/sectool at the moment when you go to update, you can safely ignore it. Don't update with everything from testing, just update the relevant hplip packages it offers.

When you have updated them, remember to disable the Core Updates Testing media.

Hope that helps!

Claire
