Bug#1001440: /usr/bin/foo2zjs: fails to load firmware into printer

[Kevin Goodsell]

I'm not sure if it's the same issue, but I'm also seeing firmware failing
to load on my LaserJet 1020 using foo2zjs. My guess is that there's a
conflict between the firmware loading script and udev-configure-printer
trying to access the printer at the same time.

Here is a snippet from journalctl when the printer was turned on:

Bug#1001440: /usr/bin/foo2zjs: fails to load firmware into printer

[David Heidelberg]

Package: printer-driver-foo2zjs
Version: 20200505dfsg0-2
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/foo2zjs

Dear Maintainer,

After connecting printer (HP 1018), firmware isn't loaded into printer, even 
after getting by getweb 1018.

Seems like script /lib/udev/hplj1000 and symlinks (as hplj1018) give up on 
uploading firmware into device.

I managed to succeed by disabling udev rule triggering this script and manually 
running

# cat /lib/firmware/hp/sihp1018.dl > /dev/usb/lp3

which does upload 1018 firmware into USB printer connected to lp3 (visible in 
dmesg).

I think this is partly inconsistency between Debian udev rules and upstream 
firmware upload script quality (and age).

I'll try figure out patch, but not promising it'll be soon.

David
