Bug#904070: non-confirm-able
this is not confirm-able and seems to be a local issue I'm still
working out where it lies. This is not however a grave bug affecting
this package version as originally suspected. If there is a bug at all
its related to reinstalling after purge and rm -rf of all config dirs
and hplip.conf not being reinstalled even with --force-confmiss.
root@debian:/home/roger# apt --reinstall -o

this is an local issue and not a bug unless you'd consider the failure
to generate this config file or it missing causing this issue, a bug
