[Nix-dev] hplip network support is disabled: why?

[Aristid Breitkreuz]

Hi Nixers,

In the hplip expression, it says something about waiting until "we" have
SNMP, yet it is not clear to me what is meant there.

This has the unfortunate side effect of the hp-setup utility (usable with
my patch in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/301) not being able to
work with network printers and scanners.

Do you know why the network support is explicitly being disabled (by
passing a flag) in the nix expression?
