I have cups already which KDE can use, I don=E2=80=99t need (or want) another tool that does the same job and= that has a lot of GUI stuff that my printer doesn=E2=80=99t support anyway (scanners= and such). Furthermore, it installs a tool which I don=E2=80=99t need and pollutes my = tray and which has no off-switch. Tries to deactivate it in the past had not succeeded (as I said, non-technical reasons). Also, with every update it wants to download the proprietary plugin anew (which I had trouble with in the past b/c I did offline updates) or else no printo worko. Lastly, this plugin installation doesn=E2=80=99t work if system python was = not version 2, so every time I had to eselect python 2, install hplip, and switch back again. You may certainly call me backward minded, but it worked in the past[TM] without hplip, and I would like that again. --=20 Gru=C3=9F | Greetings | Qapla=E2=80=99 Please do not share anything from, with or about me with any Facebook servi= ce.
