 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue or what the problem is ??

I do not know anything about RPMs and am disinclined to debug
hplipfull-3.22.2-0.x86_64. Knowing your printer model and whether
it is USB-connected or not could produce a solution.

The printer model is HP laser jet pro M404dn . The OS is RHEL 7.9 . The printer is USB connected. The issue is around the installation of the RPM on the OS. The official RPM version from Red Hat does not contain drivers for this model for RHEL 7 {old}. So I have to use the HP version which has the latest drivers. Which I can't install because of the errors. To recap.

The latest RHEL 7 version is 3-15-9 and the minimum version required according to the HP website is 3-16-9 .

May I be clear? I haven't any intention of dealing with HPLIP as my
skills are limited there.

You have a modern IPP printer but do not have a recent OS. What versions of CUPS and cups-filters are being used? Would a network connection be suitable to you?

I pre-installed all the standard hplip rpm's plus a few other packages which I thought might help and then installed the hplipfull-3.22.2-0.x86_6 rpm with the rpm command and using --nodeps option . I can see the driver now for the printer. Is there a way to automate configuration of the printer i.e. change settings to duplex printing from the command line as I am working on automating the installation of the printer.

Can you help with this problem?
