There is a new hpasm version 7.0.0 and the latest ebuild is for version 6.30. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/products/servers/supportsoftware/linux/ <- here is the new version, and other programs which should have their own ebuilds
Marek, can I have you try the new version please and report, before I commit anything to portage. I "maintain" this package, only because there is no maintainer. I have no way to test this (I don't own any printers, much less hp ones). To do a quick test, rename the old ebuild to the new ebuild, make a digest (ebuild new.ebuild digest), and emerge it. Then test.
please re-open when you have tested like I asked in comment #1
For the benefit of others searching for hpasm tools, tuxus has done some work on an ebuild http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-140538.html http://dev.gentoo.org/~tuxus/insight-tools/app-admin/
