Comment 4 for bug 1774660

Hi

Distro and version information is in the bug description, even the links to the binary package.
For completeness, the source package is here:

http://download.opensuse.org/source/distribution/leap/15.0/repo/oss/src/hplip-3.17.9-lp150.3.2.src.rpm

I've asked the reporter for steps to reproduce.

But don't you think, reading my patch and my analysis, that the bug is quite obvious? I concede that my patch is no more than a hotfix to avoid the segfault. A true solution would need to clean up the class inheritance of the various "Printer" subclasses in hpijs. Setting ModeCount to 2 and relying on other code to fill in pMode[0] and pMode[1], as Printer::Printer() is doing it, looks all but clean to me. And maybe DJGenericVIP shoulldn't be a subclass of DJ9xxVIP after all, looking at how error conditions are handled differently.
