Description:

Since the latest upgrade of hplip, I can't print anymore. Cups gives a rather unuseful error message:

"/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed"

Some additional investigations revealed that all the various hp-* commands fail with the following error:

error: HPMUDEXT could not be loaded. Please check HPLIP installation.

There is at least one other person affected by the bug: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=500769#p500769

Hi, maybe the problem is that don't have the net-snmp package installed.

The file /usr/lib/libhpmud.so.0.0.4 depends on it.

$ ldd /usr/lib/libhpmud.so.0.0.4
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb7fd4000)
libusb-0.1.so.4 => /usr/lib/libusb-0.1.so.4 (0xb7ecb000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7eb3000)
libnetsnmp.so.15 => /usr/lib/libnetsnmp.so.15 (0xb7e07000)
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (0xb7cb1000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7b69000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fd5000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7b65000)
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb7b51000)

Check this.

Confirmed. Adding the net-snmp package did the trick.

Shouldn't it added to the hplip package dependencies?
