This bug has a fix. What does it take to get someone to look at the patch and decide whether to apply it?
What would be the right place to submit the patch? Does HPLIP have a developer mailing list? Should one send pull-requests on GitHub? Against which repository? I looked at https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing but it's all corporate speak with a developer community link that points to over a dozen forums none of which mentions HPLIP. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1688684 Title: hp-check shows the distro index instead of its name Status in HPLIP: New Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: self.core.distro is the Linux distribution's index, not its name. This results in messages such as: warning: 2-9.0 version is not supported. Using 2-8.6 versions dependencies to verify and install... 2 means debian! As such it is not suitable for traces and information messages. self.core.distro_name should be used instead. See the attached patch.
