This is the only package which requires python 3.8 in my system. Could you add python 3.9 target please? Thanks
Now that we have a deadline for the switch to python3_9 as default implementation (see URL), please add python3_9 support to this package ASAP in order for users to find any regressions...
Not my call, see depends!
Works for me on python-3.9.

After figuring it out myself a hopefully less cryptic explanation to save other hplip users the trouble... The depend that's stuck on python:3.8 ATM is net-dns/avahi (see the depends-on bug #746905). That depend is conditional on (USE=-minimal and) USE=snmp, so those with either USE=minimal or USE=-snmp shouldn't have to worry about the avahi depend itself. Meanwhile, that bug mentions that hplip itself is already 3.9-ready and only waiting on avahi, so once avahi gets 3.9 compatibility it can be flipped on for hplip as well. Thus, at least for those without USE=snmp set, locally forcing hplip to python-3.9 shouldn't be a problem and comment #3 is the expected. But the in-tree hplip ebuild must wait for the conditional avahi dependency to get its own python:3.9 support before hplip can turn it on too. (The alternative would of course be hard-coding the snmp/avahi option off and dropping support for it entirely, but that's the sort of last-resort alternative that would be deployed if for instance avahi was being tree-cleaned, etc, and isn't appropriate for this circumstance.)
I wonder why hplip-3.21.2-r1 has been added without python 3.9 target, now that avahi has gained python 3.9 compatibility. It was probably just bad timing. Please add python 3.9 target ASAP.
