I recently purchased a new printer and drivers were not available for it in Etch, which I am running.

I am running the version of GIMP from the Debian Etch repository. How do I get Debian's GIMP to recognize the compiled from source gutenprint 5.0.2 and allow me to print directly from GIMP.

where does that compile install the gutenprint binaries? It's possibly
in a different location than gimp expects thus it's not found. It may
be as simple as linking to the location gimp expects? That's just a
random guess.

If you mean all of the libs, they are in /usr/local/lib/. I tried making a link to each of them from /usr/lib, but that didn't help. Does anyone know where the Debian version of gimp 2.2 puts its various files?
