I will think about on how to rearrange the dependencies.
Created attachment 226923 [details, diff] hplip-3.9.12-r1.diff I think the attached changes should be sufficient. I was under the impression sane-frontends are just cli frontends but they are gui frontends. Now sane-backends and dev-python/imaging are installed in any case, so command-line scanning will work. If the X use flag is enabled either media-gfx/xsane or media-gfx/sane-frontends are installed where media-gfx/xsane is preferred.
