[Bug] hplip missing cups_ppd_install

The slackbuild script for hplip has the "--enable-cups-ppd-install" configure option missing. Quite some nice printers don't work without this.

Can this be fixed in the next build? Thanks!

You can always edit the SlackBuild script and rebuild the package yourself with the option enabled.

That's what I did. I only wonder if there is a reason to not enabling this, e.g. because of license problems or experimental code, etc..

Bump because hplip is upgraded and "--enable-cups-ppd-install" is still missing.

Now the problems should be solved

Code:

ap/hplip-3.12.11-i486-2.txz

      Recompiled with --enable-cups-ppd-install. Thanks to guanx.

Thank you, willysr! This makes using several Officejet printer/all-in-one devices easier.
