I must be doing something wrong - I haven't been able to print since the
upgrade realising that I'd get to it later. I tried:
$ sudo yum reinstall "hp-plugin -i"

and got back

Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
No Match for argument: hp-plugin -i
Error: Nothing to do

Then I looked at the error log:
