Why aren't you using packages?

Dear Antoine,


I thought that the part of the testing process was to make sure that ports compile properly. The machine that I use for work run 4.2 Stable and pre-compiled packages except when packages are unavailable. True, I could use the snapshot of packages too. In a day or two when I have time again I will bring the whole system to current and update port tree. I will try then again to compile HPLIP. At least, I know that sane-backhands are updated to the most recently released version and fully functional( for me at least).

I probably made some mistakes in updating port three. It is also possible that the Paython port was in the process of updating and I just chose the wrong time to compile HPLIP. Anyhow, the machine used for the above is dedicated entirely for testing new OpenBSD packages. My knowledge is very modest but I am trying to help as much as I can the project I love and use every day.


Cheers,
Predrag
