Hi
I'm using SABRE board and it's runnig yocto (Linux imx6qeisd 5.10.52)
I successfully added cups cups-doc cups-filters hplip packages to the image.
The problem is that some hp printers, such as Hp laserjet CP1025 need hplip-plugin for printing (after running hp-setup) but when i try to install the plugin i get these errors:
Downloading plug-in from: file:///home/root/hplip-3.19.12-plugin.run
Downloading plug-in: [\ ] 0% Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/hplip/base/password.py", line 85, in get_distro_name
os_name = platform.dist()[0]
AttributeError: module 'platform' has no attribute 'dist'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

import distro
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distro'
Seems that the plugin doesn't recognize yocto as distro to install some files.
Is there any way to add hplip-plugin to the yocto image ?
