Hi,

Seems that prnt/hpcups/ErnieFilter.{cpp,h} license has been changed to
GPL2+ in at least hplip_3.24.4, so should no longer be an issue.

Title:
  Non-free code in ErnieFilter (license only grants rights for use with
  HP products)

Status in HPLIP:
  New
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in hplip package in Debian:
  Fix Released
Status in hplip package in Fedora:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The headers of ErnieFilter.cpp and .h say:

  //    This software is licensed solely for use with HP products.  
Redistribution
  //    and use with HP products in source and binary forms, with or without
  //    modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are 
met:

  
  As such, the code is non-free because I cannot safely redistribute it. Could 
that be changed to a normal 3-clause BSD license like the other files?
