Hi Richard,

thank you for reporting this issue. How is your device connected? Which printer is it? Would you mind sharing outputs:

$ SANE_DEBUG_DLL scanimage -L 2> debug.out (and attach debug.out file)
$ sudo sane-find-scanner

Does printing work?

Sorry for the noise, I think it was just bad timing. My computer took a power surge about a year ago and it took out a few ports including the on board ethernet and the USB port next to it. It looks like another USB port failed because when I plugged it in the front port everything started working again.

Just for clarification of second part of initial post (traceback part) - did you have hplip-gui subpackage installed?

--- Additional comment from Richard Shaw on 2018-01-02 10:17:20 EST ---

Yes, if you would like to keep this bug open for the module not found error that would probably be a good idea.

--- Additional comment from Zdenek Dohnal on 2018-01-02 10:23:25 EST ---

And would you mind telling me, if you had hplip-gui package installed when you issued command 'hp-setup'?

I believe so but I can try running again when I get home from $DAYJOB.

Comment 1 Richard Shaw 2018-01-03 14:57:12 UTC

It doesn't error out when hplip-gui is installed. Perhaps it should be added as a "Recommends:"?

Comment 2 Zdenek Dohnal 2018-01-03 15:20:03 UTC

hp-setup works fine with -i option, which makes hp-setup start as CLI app. Hplip GUI missing was the point of that change - all apps in main package can run in CLI mode or run only in CLI, so user doesn't need to download all gui parts, unless user explicitly wants so. IMO adding hplip-gui Recommends: will make dnf to download this subpackage every time.
The issue there is only python traceback - it should tell user something like: "You want to run this app as GUI, but do you have hplip-gui installed?"

Comment 3 Zdenek Dohnal 2018-10-10 13:55:08 UTC

Works as it should now.
