Epson Stylus CX8300 on Aspire One


I have a printer Epson Stylus CX8300, which should work using the drivers installed by gutenprint (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/)

Downloaded and installed the version 5.2.3, using configure / make / make install on an Aspire One, running Linpus (based on fc8). The drivers are listed in the configuration dialog for the printer, but to finish the configuration, the following message appears:

The printer 'Stylus_CX8300' requires the 'ijsgutenprint.5.2', but it is not installed. Please install it before using the printer.

In fact, there no file 'ijsgutenprint.5.2' in the system, although the default configuration to compile gutenprint, according to the README, it should generate this file.

After compiling and install the sources, I discovered that in this system could be installed gutenprint - 5.0.2-1.fc8.i386 with yum (I did this and copied the file ijsgutenprint.5.0 in / usr / bin, but the drivers still showing the version 5.2 and error. tried running "make uninstall", but the drivers still there in version 5.2)

Question:
What to do to "clean up" all the version 5.2 drivers and leave only the old, 5.0 of which must be installed using the old version with yum?

OR

How to be generated ijsgutenprint.5.2 in the directory / usr / bin, which apparently also solve the problem (I tried to get this file in other packages, but did not).

Thank you (Excuse me, I do not speak English very well, I used the google translation, I hope that you can read the resulting text)
