Hi Scott,
Thanks fot hat document. I modified my hplip package based on that
document and am building a 3.10.6 update package as we speak.
I noticed that --enable-dbus-build is set, but I think it might be better
to disable it. Now people get the following error due to dbus
incompatiblities:
error: Unable to load dbus - Automatic status updates in HPLIP Device Manager will be disabled.
I've looked into the problem, but only a dbus update could fix the issue
at hand :-/ Everything else works for me without a problem though.
