Slightly OT - unable to install hplip 2.7 on CentOS 5 64

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I have already reported this as a bug to the HP folks, but I was hoping someone here might have a clue about this one.

Just bought an HP Deskjet F2120 and tried to install it on my CentOS 5.0 64-bit system.  The printer installed fine, but sane does not recognize the device, so I tried to install hplip 2.7.10, which is supposed to support it.

Installation failed twice - first time because I did not have net-snmp-devel installed.  I installed that, then tried again.

Now it fails because it claims I do not have libusb installed:

INSTALL MISSING REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES
------------------------------
-------
warning: There are 2 missing REQUIRED dependencies.
note: Installation of dependencies requires an active internet connection.
warning: Missing REQUIRED dependency: libusb (libusb - USB library)
error: This installer cannot install this dependency for your distro/OS and/or version.
error: Installation cannot continue without this dependency. Please manually install this dependency and re-run this installer.

However, both yum and rpm say this is installed:

$ yum list | grep libusb
libusb.i386                              0.1.12-5.1             installed
libusb.x86_64                            0.1.12-5.1             installed
libusb-devel.i386                        0.1.12-5.1             base
libusb-devel.x86_64                      0.1.12-5.1             base

$ rpm -qa | grep libusb
libusb-0.1.12-5.1.i386
libusb-0.1.12-5.1.x86_64

I tried installing via the tarball, but it failed, claiming I don't have libjpeg installed (it is, both 32 and 64 bit versions).  Note that the hp-check output (below) shows both of these to be installed....

Any/all assistance/guideance would be appreciated - I'd hate to have to pack this up and take it back, but I will if need be.
