RHBA-2014:0767 - hplip bug fix update

Synopsis

hplip bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated hplip packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The hplip packages contain the Hewlett-Packard Linux Imaging and Printing Project (HPLIP), which provides drivers for Hewlett-Packard printers and multi-function peripherals.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the udev rules files were not in the correct location on the file system. As a consequence, permissions on the device node after connecting a device were insufficient. This update moves the udev rules files to the correct location, and udev rules now work correctly in the described situation. (BZ#905143)

Users of hplip are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
