Bug Description

When re-installing HPLIP then make always fails:
Running 'make'
Please wait, this may take several minutes...
error: 'make' command failed with status code 2

What's the problem here ?? Before the tool has deinstalled HPLIP.

2. my network printer 7210 was already detected before but then the GUI didn't go forward when selecting the PPD. What was wrong here ?

Importance high !!!

hplip is now completely deinstalled. On my Suse 10.3 'rpm -qa hplip' shows nothing.
So I'm blocked now completely and cannot connect any printer.

Why is command 'make' failing ? I think it's only for compilation ?

Thanks Martin

Go into the hplip source directory and run: (ie cd hplip-2.7.12)

make

then enter and post the error you are getting.

Also post the install log.

ls | grep log

and post the log with the latest date/time stamp.

Thanks!
