Hi Folks,
the reason: new printer HP LaserJet Pro M1132 MFP This printer needs a non-free plugin.
On my 64-bit machine with CentOS 5.5 the installation via
hplip-3.11.1.run and hplip-3.11.1.plugin.run
works perfectly (except scanning - but that's not the problem at the moment).
On my second machine - CentOS 5 32-bit I have many problems and printing doesn't works.
1. Installation using hplip-3.11.1_rhel-5.0.i386.rpm runs.
But calling
hp-setup or hp-check
ends in
warning: CUPSEXT could not be loaded. Please check HPLIP installation
Calling
./hplip-3.11.1-plugin.run
to install the non-free plugin
ends with the same message.
locate cupsext brings
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cupsext.so
2. Installation via hplip-3.11.1.run
ends in
error: Configuration failed with error: libcups not found
locate libcups
/usr/lib/libcups.so /usr/lib/libcups.so.2 /usr/lib/libcupsimage.so /usr/libcupsimage.so.2
I've "goggled" a little bit and read that it could be a python-issue
python -v
Python 2.4.2 (#1, Nov 11 2010 13:34:43) [GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-48)] on Linux2
same as on the 64-Bit machine.
What goes wrong?

As for scanning, this is one of the many things that everyone but RedHat seems to be able to do correctly. They seem to be unable to add three words to the spec file. Try adding libsane-hpaio and see if that fixes it.
Otherwise, in both cases, I'd recommend my own page on installing it from source. (NOT the install wizard they have, which is a complete pain for several reasons.)

Package 1:cups-devel-1.3.7-18.el5_5.8.i386 already installed and latest version
you can use same strace trick to find what it is looking for and then just yum whatprovides "*/filename" and install needed package.

see: http://pastebin.com , dump your strace output to pastebin.com and then just give url link into mailinglist. in this way we can avoid attachments on mailinglists..
