[Pkg-hpijs-devel] Bug#470201: hplip: hp-setup: Dialog should allow user input any characters in printer name textbox

[Andrey]

Package: hplip
Version: 2.7.10-5
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/hp-toolbox

When adding printer, user cannot directly input "-" character in
printer name textbox. If this is an idiotic disfunctionality feature,
than it *must* be removed *as soon as possible*.

The thing is anyone can still have "-" in printer name, even by means
of this particular dialog (by using Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V magick for
instance). I did so and got perfectly legal printer name
"LaserJet-1018", which works with no problem.

Please, do not inflict pain on users.
