Richard Rahl, FYI the ipp-usb source code security AUDIT review (cf. https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1157901) is done. The overall result is that things are OK in general. Next week I will make an issue at its upstream GitHub https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ipp-usb about this review so that all are publicly informed and further things can be handled at upstream also together with other Linux distributors.

ipp-usb cannot build until I set goipp to be used for build in "Printing" which I did hereby

ipp-usb fails to build for SLE12 with

SLE_12_SP5           x86_64     unresolvable: 
    nothing provides goipp
    nothing provides golang-packaging
    nothing provides zstd

so I disabled building ipp-usb for SLE12 because goipp cannot be built for SLE12 see https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/1164399#comment-1928859 and in general I think it is hopeless there when "nothing provides golang-packaging" and SLE12 is no longer really important for new software - in contrast to SLE15 where some users might be interested.

Richard Rahl, could you test that ipp-usb works for you with your printer?

I do not have a printer that supports IPP over USB.

I already did that, when I packaged it. But will try again

yes, working on my end

I wonder if it wouldn't even be better to just package goipp itself.

Richard Rahl, thank you for your efforts!

In general it is better to Keep Separated Items Separated - "KSIS" :-) cf. item (5) in RFC 1925 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1925

In general it is better to have only one upstream source tarball in each package.

So when possible it is better to package goipp as a separated package.

goipp also belongs to the Printing project because it is about the IPP protocol.

I accept ipp-usb for the Printing development project to see how far it builds therein.
