With only a single sub package I don't think the menu makes sense (but
keep hplip right after cups).

It needs atleast C++ support as well:

checking whether the C++ compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/home/peko/source/buildroot/output/build/hplip-3.12.11':
configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details

Please check with a minimal build to ensure you have all dependencies.

You have a number of trailing spaces and an extra empty line at the
bottom here.

Latest version is 3.13.3. Any reason why you are not using that?

 O> +HPLIP_SITE = http://downloads.sourceforge.net/hplip/hplip/

That URL doesn't work. It seems like it should be:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hplip/

We do have qt4, sane, polkit and python in buildroot, so optional
support for these would be nice (but isn't essential).

Again trailing spaces for both.

As far as I can see CHANGES isn't needed. It would be good with a
comment explaining why it is needed (missing from tarball but needed to
autoreconf).

Care to fix these issues and resend?
