Issues building hplip-plugin

I’m having issues with the outdated hplip from the Extras.

Hplip-plugin is from aur, which is not officially supported, and you now hopefully understand why. Remove it.

It might only work on the unstable branch where hplip is at the correct version: Manjaro Packages: hplip

Or test branch in that particular case. Generally speaking

AUR usage != Manjaro stable branch

[root tip] [HowTo] Check if your AUR build scripts have been updated

AUR usage != Manjaro stable branch Test if you are AUR ready by running below snippet in a terminal if [[ $(pacman-mirrors -G) == 'stable' ]]; then echo 'AUR is a no-go'; else echo 'OK - go ahead'; fi The Arch way Every AUR build script page has a notification subscription → in upper right box. This is a simple as it gets - when the script is updated you get a mail notification.

@Teo

Remove it.

I tested the scan function of my HP device and it seems to work without it. Marking this as resolved.
