Bug#1022974: hplip: Needs sudo but does not depend on it
Package: hplip
Version: 3.22.6+dfsg0-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: tpikonen@gmail.com
When installing the non-free plugin with hp-plugin, the installer
authenticates using 'sudo'. If sudo is not installed, the password
prompt always reports an invalid password error.
hplip package should depend on sudo. Bonus points for checking that the
sudo configuration works before starting the installation.
