Reported against version 2.8.12-6 currently in testing
(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F10/FEDORA-2008-11236)

Release 2.8.12 adds scanning support quite some newly supported
scanners, among them my HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP multifunctional,
compared to the current F10 release.

For my HP it however requires a binary plugin from HP, which it tries to
install automatically, but fails.

It downloads:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/download/printdriver/auxfiles/HP/plugins/hplip-2.8.12-plugin.run

It aborts with:
./hplip-2.8.12-plugin.run: line 369: ./hplip-plugin-install: Permission denied
(even when run as root, which is required by the script)

When the --keep parameter is used for the script (manual install) it
apparently installs, but xsane 0.996 reports "Error during device I/O"
when it tries to connect to the scanner.

Note that hp-scan does not work for this scanner (yet), which is a known
issue: http://hplipopensource.com/node/312

Users with a non-open source HP driver therefore may not benefit from
this update.

This is why proprietary plug-ins are bad news.  There's absolutely
nothing we can do about this.  Please report it to HP.
