Just for your information I have removed the auto-configuration [1] of
hplip printers done by udev rules. There was as well an upgrade and an
uninstall tool which I have removed as well. This are things which
should be done by the user/admin.
As mentioned on the wiki page for hplip [2] at every upgrade the
recommended action is to delete all print queues and recreate them
again, either with hp-setup or the cups web interface.
[1] *hplip-3.14.3 (07 Mar 2014)
07 Mar 2014; Daniel Pielmeier <billie@gentoo.org> +hplip-3.14.3.ebuild:
Version bump. This version adds a patch which removes the update and
uninstall python scripts as well as the auto-configuration/plug-in
installation related stuff from the udev rules. This should fix Gentoo bug
#434830 (Upstream bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/1080353).
