Bug Description
Installing hplip-3.21.2.run under a fresh copy of Mint 20.1 I encounter the following missing dependencies:
Package-Name Component Required/Optional
libjpeg base REQUIRED
libtool base REQUIRED
cups-devel base REQUIRED
cups-image base REQUIRED
libusb base REQUIRED
sane-devel scan REQUIRED
libavahi-dev scan REQUIRED
dbus fax REQUIRED
libnetsnmp-devel network REQUIRED
python3-notify2 gui_qt5 OPTIONAL
python3-pyqt4-dbus gui_qt4 OPTIONAL
python3-pyqt4 gui_qt4 REQUIRED
python3-pyqt5-dbus gui_qt5 OPTIONAL
python3-pyqt5 gui_qt5 REQUIRED
python3-devel base REQUIRED
These are not in the Mint 20.1 repositories under those names (that is, apt fails to find them when tried manually).
In a decade of using hplip and HP printers I've never had this problem. Is it fixable?
Also effects ZorinOS (based on Ubuntu 18.04)
