Bug Description

when installing hplib with hplip-3.13.<XX>.run,
the PATH from the environment is not validated.

Example: Using many different compilers wich are set by default during development, there may be an inconsitent configuration when resolving dependencies.

example:
which gcc ==> /opt/GCC/bin/gcc
gcc --version ==> gcc (GCC) 4.7.1

==> Configure: configure: error: cannot find libjpeg-devel support

Installed system:
/usr/bin/gcc --version ==> 4.6.3
==> Configure: everything is fine.

Solution:
Before running configre give an option to modify used PATH.

Hi,

Thank you for the suggestion. Meanwhile, can you try following.
--> update PATH variable information in ~/.bashrc (or equivalent) file
$ export PATH=$PATH:/opt/GCC/bin

Thanks & Regards,
Amarnath
