Version 3.21.2+dfsg1-2 does not contain the change to
/etc/xdg/autostart/hplip-systray.desktop, so I expect that you get the
annoying message.

The fixed version is 3.21.2+dfsg1-2+exp0.

Have you modified it manually?

I use GNOME and I can confirm that the fix works for me: 3.21.2+dfsg1-2
shows the popup, 3.21.2+dfsg1-2+exp0 does not.

The change only fixes GNOME users; if you use a different desktop
environment, it will do nothing for you.  Do you use GNOME?  Cinnamon?
Any other derivatives?  KDE?...

Thanks.

Best regards
