Comment 19 for bug 994924

I don't know if there are logs from hp-setup. I wanted the output from the manual plug-in install and not that from hp-setup. With manual install i did not mean running hp-plugin!!!

I did just download the plug-in and extracted the contents of the run file to the directory hplip-3.12.4-plugin with the following command:
./hplip-3.12.4-plugin.run --noexec --target hplip-3.12.4-plugin

In that directory I run:
./hplip-plugin-install --help
which tells me that there is a debug mode. Maybe you can get more information this way.

Also "find / ! -fstype proc ! -fstype sysfs -type f -mmin -2" for instance gives you the files which changed in the last two minutes. This way you can find if any logs were written.
