Package: hplip
Version: 0.9.4

A first attempt to derootify hplip. It's configurable, so you can run
still run as root, if you want/need. Checked with an USB connected
Office Jet, scanning currently doesn't work with or without this
patch.

Very nice, I will look into it, and send it upstream if it works.

BTW, is Ubuntu going to resync with the 0.9.4 Debian packaging changes?

I can test all the functionality here, so I can tell you if it breaks
anything (I can even test network/USB connections).

Closes: 320936
Changes: 
 hplip (0.9.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Matthias Klose <doko@ubuntu.com>:
     * hplip-base should also replace files in hplip-data (<< 0.9.3)
     * Run HPLIP daemons as non-root user (optional, default as run as root)
       (closes: #320936)
   * Henrique de Moraes Holschuh:
     * Modify Matthias' postinst to create the hplip user in a safer way
     * Depend on the correct adduser version for the above (just in case some
       dweeb tries to backport this to ancient Debian)
     * Add hplip-base.post{inst,rm} and initscript machinery for the hplip
       user, supporting ephemeral /var/run and dpkg-statoverride the way I
       like it
     * Make run-hplip-as-non-root *non*-optional, it is safer and there is
       nothing in hpiod or hpssd that requires root priviledges to work in a
       Debian system
     * Add NEWS.Debian item about running as non-root
