Description of problem: After installing HPLIP package with all required dependencies and invoking of "hp-setup", an error says that "Proprietary plugin" cannot be downloaded from HP / openprinting site You get: // ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Downloading plug-in: [\ ] 0% Plugin is not accessible. Trying to download it from fallback location: [http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin/hplip-3.17.10-plugin.run] error: /root/.hplip/hplip-3.17.10-plugin.run file does not match its checksum. File may have been corrupted or altered error: Failed to install Plugin. error: The device you are trying to setup requires a binary plug-in. Some functionalities may not work as expected without plug-ins. Please run 'hp-plugin' as normal user to install plug-ins.Visit http://hplipopensource.com for more infomation. // ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.17.4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect printer (here: MFPM127fn) via network 2. Install hplip package with all dependencies 3. invoke hp-setup and press 'd' for downloading the proprietary plugin needed
HPLIP has no registered maintainer, so assigning to 'all'. I tried this, but without an HP printer.. HPLIP does not go far. I did not see the option described in 3. above; but perhaps this is on screen 3 of the setup, & I could only get to screen 2.

Step 3 can be done on commandline also to not get a form window popping up, but: I did the same on a Raspberry running the latest Raspbian, and first, install also failed -- I had to do an "apt-get update" for being able to proceed. So I assume that HP / openprinting has moved the file to a different location
It looks as if the "run file" can be downloaded here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hplip/files/hplip/3.19.3/hplip-3.19.3.run The page sends lots of crap and you get redirected to mirrors several times (always verify checksum), but finally it seems to work. Someone please update the download URL?
In the source tarball there is ./installer/pluginhandler.py ==> look at line PLUGIN_FALLBACK_LOCATION = 'http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/plugin/' ==> This sould be updated
In Core/Backport media there is hplip 3.19.1 available!

Looks like the next bug: core/backport can be activated (I tested with two different repo servers), but you cannot activate it as update. MCC won't let you check the checkbox in the repo list, and if you manually add "update" to the repo name in /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg, this has no effect. You can manually select hplip 3.19.1 in "manage software" window, but if an older version of hplip is installed and you run an update, then hplip will not be replaced with the new version automatically.
Launch the Media Manager by entering in a terminal: drakrpm-edit-media --expert In the resultant display you can tag backport media as update media.

I've reviewed bug 24359 and the changelog at https://sourceforge.net/p/hplip/news/2019/01/hplip-3191-release-notes/ as well as the release notes for each of the releases between 3.17.10 and that one. It doesn't appear that support for any older printers was dropped in any of those releases, so this update should have gone through as a regular update, not a backport. Can we either move (or copy) the hplip-3.19.1-1.mga6.src.rpm and associated rpm packages to the updates repo? If that can't be done can they be resubmitted to core updates testing, with the release number bumped if necessary?

I can update the package from "/updates/6" branch and submit it in Core/Updates_testing repo. After if you can provide an advisory it would be fine.
So also I can update it to latest 3.19.5 release like on Cauldron, wdyt?
Yes please. The release notes for 3.19.3 and 3.19.5 also do not indicate any older printer support being dropped, so 3.19.5 should be fine as a normal update for Mageia 6.

This printer does not need proprietary plugins and so this test only confirms that this update does not cause any regressions.
Adding the ok tag and validating the update based on the above.
