Thank for the advise.
This it what I did.
but after making make install. the hplip-1.7.4 (rpm) is this here
and I got the errors that I previously mention.
If I remove the rpm hplip.1.7.4 package, and make an install
of hplip.2.8.7, I lost also the hp-setup, etc... commands even after
I reinstall, so I have to reinstall the rpm hplip.1.7.4 !

I do not understand why I cannot get the hp-   etc... commands
from hplip-2.8.7.tgz !

Regards
