Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hplip

I noticed the "HPLIP Toolbox" icon under System->Administration. Seeing
as I have an HP Laser printer, I clicke don the icon out of curiosity...
but nothing happened.

I went in the menu editor to see what command was invoked. It was "hp-
toolbox".

So I tried to start it from the command line, and it displayed this
error message :

$ hp-toolbox 
error: PyQt not installed. GUI not available. Exiting.
error: PyQt/Qt initialization error. Please check install of PyQt/Qt and try 
again.

I did a quick search in Synaptic to see what I could find, and I installed the 
package "python-qt3" (it's in Main)
That fixed the problem, the HP printer tool now fires up as it should.
