Description Sascha Herrmann 2005-06-28 07:12:54 UTC 
Hi folks,

the hplip ebuild has a hard coded download link to a daily snapshot. Therefore i
request to change the DB_V var in line 7 either to

DB_V=1.5-current

for the most recent package (which will corrupt md5sums of course) 
or to

DB_V=1.4-1

for a stable download link to an older version (not recommended).

archive!
