I have the exact same problem using Ubuntu 18.04. Reading all of the
above, I decided to do the manual install of the (5 hours old) 3.19.6
version. Guess what: nothing changed, still error.
Next attempt: the binary install. Doesn't download the plugin, but gives
the link so you can copy and download it. But no such link for the
plugin.asc is also needs. Just a "missing" message. After downloading
both and re-run hp-plugin it all ends the same:
Plugin installation failed
error: Python gobject/dbus may be not installed
error: Plug-in install failed.
So when do they finally fix the pgp,mit.edu keyserver?
