it might be a small nut but I ended up using this sledge-hammer:
a) made this link
ln -s /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cups.so /usr/local/lib/cups.so
(the cmake kludge in kde4 seems to like somesuch)
b) dispense withe the FindSystemConfigPrinter.cmake in kde and create one (in
the modules-directory) like this:-
cat>/path/to/kdeadmin-4.4.2/modules/Findblfs_systemConfigPrinter.cmake<<"EOF"
###############################################################
SET(blfs_systemConfigPrinter_BIN_PATH
/usr/bin
)
FIND_PROGRAM(blfs_systemConfigPrinter_RUNTIME
NAMES system-config-printer
PATHS ${blfs_systemConfigPrinter_BIN_PATH}
)
FIND_PROGRAM(blfs_systemConfigPrinter_PYTHON
NAMES cupshelpers.py ppds.py py
PATHS ${blfs_systemConfigPrinter_BIN_PATH}
/usr/share/system-config-printer
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cupshelpers
)
IF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_RUNTIME AND blfs_systemConfigPrinter_PYTHON)
SET(blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FOUND TRUE)
ENDIF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_RUNTIME AND blfs_systemConfigPrinter_PYTHON)
IF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FOUND)
IF (NOT blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FIND_QUIETLY)
MESSAGE(STATUS "Found system-config-printer:
${blfs_systemConfigPrinter_PYTHON}")
ENDIF (NOT blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FIND_QUIETLY)
ENDIF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FOUND)
#ELSE (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FOUND)
IF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FIND_REQUIRED)
MESSAGE( " Error: Could not find system-config-printer")
ENDIF (blfs_systemConfigPrinter_FIND_REQUIRED)
MARK_AS_ADVANCED(
blfs_systemConfigPrinter_RUNTIME
blfs_systemConfigPrinter_PYTHON
)
EOF
c) add this line:-
find_package(blfs_systemConfigPrinter REQUIRED)
(line 7 I think) to kdeadmin-4.4.2/CMakeLists.txt
replace SystemConfigPrinter with blfs_systemConfigPrinter in
kdeadmin-4.4.2/system-config-printer-kde/CMakeLists.txt
d) start cmake
e) pray

######### you might want to try a similar less elaborate find for pyCUPS
(beforehand)
good luck
