hplip interfere with foo2zjs-nightly, and possibly others

hplip is from extra. foo2zjs-nightly is from AUR. They collide is the sense that hplip's udev rules

/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-hpmud.rules

also, unintentionly, works on foo2zjs-nightly devices, thus in fact preventing foo2zjs-nightly devices from working.

  1. This post actually continues [SOLVED] hplip and LaserJet 1020 issues comment #3, which was said to be a necrobump.

  2. I wonder if it is desirable that hplip would add its not short list of ATTR{idProduct} to its udev rules to prevent the collision? Although some of hplip devices are attached to the parallel port, and thus probably have no ATTR{idProduct}, most are USB that probably have one.

  3. Not related to the main issue of the interference, I think that some users would want to

    # sed -i '/ppdev/s/^/#/' /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-hpmud.rules

    , or its equivalent in /etc/udev/, if exists.

Re: hplip interfere with foo2zjs-nightly, and possibly others

As covered by udev you could override /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-hpmud.rules with /etc/udev/rules.d/56-hpmud.rules if your system needs both.
If you think there is should be universal changes to /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/56-hpmud.rules which is supplied by upstream you could contact upstream requesting such changes.

  1. I think the issue is not AUR related. Is this why jasonwryan@comment #2 wrote an ellipsis?

  2. loqs@comment #3: I have filed a bug at upstream hplip bugs place.
