HP Linux Drivers
hp-setup and other utils by hp require python2 and python-gobject and python-dbus
Debian
hp-setup -i or hp-plugin -i will not work because python-gobject is not installed.
aptitude python-gobject
Fixed my issues.
Archlinux
In addition to installing hplip you also have to install dbus-python and python-gobject
You also need to link /usr/bin/python to python two instead of 3. Though make sure to link it back when the setup is complete.
rm /usr/bin/python ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python
Do the setup/plugin build.
rm /usr/bin/python ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python
hp-setup
The openprinting.org is down. This means that running hp-setup will fail as it cannot download the plugin. While it will be up eventually I have chosen to mirror the plugin for a while. This is the version that works with the current Debian release.

Works though. I do not think its hacked.
