Colin, thank you very much for explaining the problem. To the HPLIP developers at HP: Currently no user is able to install the proprietary driver plug-in for any version of HPLIP on any distribution. The problem is a software change which SourceForge has done on their servers which leads to a broken HTTP header. Due to this, the urllib of Python is not able any more to download the plugin index file http://hplip.sf.net/plugin.conf from SourceForge (Firefox and wget still download the file though). Please report this urgently to SourceForge giving a reference to this bug report and Colin Watson's comment. Note that this bug makes the plugin completely inaccessible for normal users (who do not know its location on OpenPrinting).
