Error installing HPLIP on FC2

I've gotten the HPLIP package from sourceforge, and have
done

$ ./configure --disable-network-build
$ make

both of which ran to completion, seeemingly without error.

When when I try to do the

# make install

it fails, unable to find the file

/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/pcardext.so

There are a bunch of files in that directory, but the file
pcardext.so indeed does not exist. I wonder why configure
didn't find that out? Anyway, I wonder what to do about that.

Is anyone willing to help? If so, what should I do?

Also, I saw a patch file for the version I downloaded
(also on sourceforge) but patch couldn't find the file
to modify, and I couldn't figure it out either, since
none of the files looked like the "original" in the
patch.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
