Some time ago I installed hplip packages.  Today I purged those
packages.  Some cruft was left behind on my bionic system.

$ sudo aptitude purge hplip hplip-data hplip-gui
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  hplip{p} hplip-data{pu} hplip-gui{p} libsane-hpaio{u} 
python3-dbus.mainloop.pyqt5{u} python3-pexpect{u} python3-ptyprocess{u}
  python3-reportlab{u} python3-reportlab-accel{u}
