[ebuild R ] net-print/hplip-1.7.1 USE="X foomaticdb ppds qt3 scanner -snmp" 0 kB [1] Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB Portage overlays: [1] /opt/portage This pretty much describes the problem. Because of the symlinks and no binary obviously no scanning can take place. I can compile manually and link the binary myself and all is well however the ebuild should be able to do that. Thanks, Gene Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge hplip 2. try to scan with an hp all in one device 3.
you are using an overlay ebuild. Nothing I can help you with, sorry :( Please provide a fix for the in-portage ebuild.
