            Bug ID: 214686
           Summary: printing/hplip: missing PPD in sources, but never
                    installed by the port
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

          Priority: ---

Running CUPS with some printing devices, like HP X451DW and HP OfficeJet Colour
Pro 8600-n911a, I used to use the port printing/hplip to provide the proper
driver/ppd files.

Today I figured out, that the must have been some changes during the past
months to this port, since my OfficeJet 8600 was capable of producing high
quality printouts with a proper driver, either hp-officejet_pro_8600.ppd.gz or
hp-officejet_pro_8600-hpijs.ppd.gz.

With the recent port printing/hplip (hplip-3.16.10), ports tree r426563, I miss
these two PPD drivers amongst others. They are present in the source picked up
by fetch, but they never get installed - a "find" confirms their non-existence.

What I'm missing here? The port definitely installs only a subset of the
provided drivers one can find in hpcups and hpijs subfolders of the extracted
tarball.
