All hplip ebuilds fixed. Closing.

Thanks for reporting.

The dependency was changed recently to dev-libs/libusb:0, but should be on virtual/libusb:0.

That would have been right if I had been able to test it. Since I couldn't I did as explained in:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270039#c0

If I or another dev is able to test we'll change that,

Denis.

Thanks for clarifying things. It is okay to wait, but I guess given that 1) you can't test it with dev-libs/libusb:0 either, 2) virtual/libusb:0 dependency is essentially the same thing as dev-libs/libusb, especially for stable arch users 3) it emerges fine ;), you shouldn't really be hard about it.

Right now, if someone is not careful about updating, it installs a horde of libusb packages, both versions 0 and 1 of virtual/libusb and dev-libs/libusb in slots, along with libusb-compat, depending upon his system. Sure I can just mask dev-libs/libusb-1 and call it a day, but I guess this is better.
