Will these PETS install Python itself on Racy 5.3, or are they support files for Python that is already installed? If so, is there a Python PET too?

I am trying to install my older printer using the full version of hplip-3.12.6 , downloaded from HP's Linux Open Source Printing repository - because I know this library has my driver in it, my printer was listed when installed on my other Slacko Puppy distro and the printer is working in my Slacko....

thanks guys

what really goes into pup_save.2fs files, is it just a few settings, or pointers to programs to load on boot, or is it really saving the whole applications kinda like OLE object type variables would do in VB? In other words...does it need to be 3 Gb large, or small is fine like 512k? Thanks, Laserdo...
