The link you posted above seems unrelated to our problem here. The launchpad question is about missing dependencies which should be installed when installing hplip.

From Petteri's output there must be a problem after hp-setup is trying to run the the downloaded run script.

From hp-setup it is called with: "sh hplip-3.9.12-plugin.run -- -i" or "-u" depending on how hp-setup is called.

When I run this command the plugin installs successfully. I tested with the -u and with the -i switch. As mentioned above I can not run it from hp-setup as this part is only executed if the printer in question needs a plugin.

Please can anybody experiencing this problem run "sh hplip-3.9.12-plugin.run -- -ig". This should give extra debug output.
