Package: hplip
Version: 2.7.10

"Note: HPLIP is free, open source software distributed under the MIT,
BSD, and GPL licenses. HP does not provide formal consumer or commercial
support for this software."

Unfortunately, this statement is incorrect as of 2.7.10.

hplip/hpijs since 2.7.10 is not open software anymore.

It downloads binary libraries and firmware automatically
