Bug#351117: Hpiod crashes on startup
Package: hplip
Version: 0.9.7-4
Upon startup of hpiod, either by hplip or from the
command line, it crashes with the message "can't open
or create : No such file or directory
io/hpiod/hpiod.cpp 195". The crash immediately shuts
down the program and prevents any inputs or command
line options from displaying. The package is newly
installed on a Debian Sid system, and overwrote an old
version (Feburary 2005) downloaded from HP's website.
I have the Debian CUPS package installed, and an HP
Deskjet 3845 printer. I have kernel version 2.6.15-1
from package linux-image-2.6.15-1-k7 and libc version
2.3.5.
I traced the file and line mentioned in the crash
message to an fprintf statement in the package source,
which prints the message.
