This output should speak for itself:

Hope you can read the german output. If not: "Keine Berechtigung" means "no permissions".

On a sidenote: To get my printer alive with gentoo is a real nightmare. I've got my hp880c running on debian, suse, redhat and mandrake (which is not the best, but printer support is). Maybe it's not gentoo's fault: The newer ghostscript versions seem to have deleted some printers. Actually I'm fumbling around with apsfilter, cups (+gimp-print-cups), emerged hpijs, reading a lot of cups related stuff (sounds easy and should be easy) and getting very slowly more and more insane...

Try to disable sandbox by setting the appropriate variable.
Code:

$ export SANDBOX_DISABLED=1
$ emerge hp-web-jetadmin


It should work better. :wink:

Yep, this works (thx a lot) but the nightmare goes on. :evil:
After executing setup (in /opt/jetadmin/) I get this installation - "result":
    Das Computersystem erfüllt nicht die Anforderungen für HP Web JetAdmin 6.5.

I try to translate: Your system did not fulfill the requirements for HP ...
Great, very informative! ;-)
I looked into /opt/jetadmin/wjainstall.log which was pretty happy with the "install":

    Using OS locale.
    Proceeding with Silent Install ...
    Checking system requirements;The operating system either RedHat or SuSE Linux.
    Please note that only the latest versions are known to be supported.
    Success
    User has sufficient permissions for the install;Reading install.ini to retrieve package list...
    Reading install.ini to retrieve install file lists...
    Verifying file list: wjabundle.fpb.
    wja had no optional install files.
    The installer will attempt to install the following:
    wja with required file(s):
    wjabundle.fpb
    DeterminePreviousInstall: bFPMUpgrade = 0
    No previous installation found;New install.
    Using the default machine name, k7c.
    Using port number, 8000.
    Setting the Target Directory to /var/tmp/portage/hp-web-jetadmin-6.5-r2/image//opt/jetadmin.
    Installation Summary:
    Machine name: k7c Port number: 8000
    Install directory: /var/tmp/portage/hp-web-jetadmin-6.5-r2/image//opt/jetadmin
    Install Successful


The readme_en gives me this: (my own comments in {...})

    Note: Although Red Hat Linux 7.1 and SuSE Linux 7.1 are the
    only officially supported versions of Linux,
    HP Web JetAdmin should work (but is not supported) on
    other versions of Linux if the following files {sounds more like a wish than a fact}
    (and associated versions) are installed:

    For installing and running HP Web JetAdmin:
    Kernel version 2.2.* {present one is 2.4.19}
    Libraries:
    glibc version 2.1.* {2.2.5 here}
    libstdc++ version 2.9.*


Looks like this crap is much more away from a solution. I think I'll drop it.

Web JetAdmin is the best you'll find for managing HP printers. I'm having the same problem, though, and I'm determined to not give up (I gotta flash my laserjet, and I'm determined to not go find a windows box to admin it).

I'm certain the problem is a result of libstdc++ version 2.9 being required, and Gentoo not having it. Gentoo installs version 2.7 and 2.8 by default, but _no_ 2.9.

I'm going to gripe for a minute, here: Why doesn't Gentoo keep a database of install files and their corresponding packages? It could *easily* be done, perhaps even automatically in ebuild, and it would be SO WONDERFUL. Look at Debian's package search utility-- it's AMAZINGLY USEFUL. Even a searchable database on the Gentoo site would be a vast improvement. I'm bursting with annoyance that I can't search for a file in my packages. Back to Debian with me and mine if that's not in the next version of portage.

So, with that said and done... In what package is libstdc++.so.2.x located?! Grr. Help much appreciated. Thank you.

Ah, I just read about gentoolkit. I still think emerge should have file-search functionality, but at least there is a solution. A website package-file-search facility and a list of files in the package browser would be nice, too. Peace.

Alright, then: "libstdc++ is now part of gcc" or so says the libc site. So, does that mean I can do ln -s /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2/libstdc++.so /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9 to solve my missing libstdc++.so.2.9? The lib-compat package is the one that contains libstdc++.so.2.8, and since there are no updates to it, I'm assuming I have to do this. Also, the only other libstdc++ I found on the libc site were version 2.90.x, which is wierd, because the next newest version is 2.8.x, and hp-web-jetadmin requires 2.9.x. Bleh. Any suggestions?
