[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1825717] Re: hplip issue during hp-setup - stuck at plugin install
To the HP developers at HP: Debian and Ubuntu (and perhaps also other modern Linux distributions) have multi-architecture support which allows installing libraries for different architectures on the same system (most prominently having also 32-bit i386 libraries on 64-bit amd64 systems). The libraries which got formerly installed into /usr/lib/ are now installed into /usr/lib/x86_64 -linux-gnu for the 64-bit amd64 versions of the library binaries, into /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu for the 32-bit i386 versions, ... The proprietary plugin seems not to take account of this and searches for its libraries on hard-coded paths. Therefore adding the links as described in comment #6 solves the problem. Could you make the plugin in a way that it either searches alternative paths or checks by environment variables whether the libraries are in multi-architecture sub-directories or at other alternative positions? This would make it much easier for users of Linux distributions to use the plugin with the distribution's packages of HPLIP. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825717 Title: hplip issue during hp-setup - stuck at plugin install Status in HPLIP: New Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Fresh install of Kubuntu 19.04 Installed hplip from repositories, available version is 3.19.1+dfsg0-1 When I start setup with hp-setup, this happens: 1.

I re-created the same issue on another install, this time Ubuntu-Budgie 19.04. Same issue happened, same solution fixed it. Detailed steps I followed to fix the issue: 1. Go to https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/gethplip . 2. Download latest version for Ubuntu . At the time of writing latest version is 3.19.3 . 3. Download hplip-3.19.3.run file, remember to change permissions to make it executable. 4. Remove hplip installed by your distribution repositories. 5. Download hplip-3.19.3-plugin.run and hplip-3.19.3-plugin.run.asc from https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/plugins . 6. run hplip-3.19.3.run in a terminal, follow instructions on screen. 7. During printer setup process, when asked, always use interactive mode instead of gui. When asked for plugin, select path instead of download from server, provide path including full name of hplip-3.19.3-plugin.run . -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825717 Title: hplip issue during hp-setup - stuck at plugin install Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Fresh install of Kubuntu 19.04 Installed hplip from repositories, available version is 3.19.1+dfsg0-1 When I start setup with hp-setup, this happens: 1.
