libgnomeprint AND libgnomeprintui 2.1.x are not API nor ABI compatible
with 2.0.. That is why Chema bumped the minor version for pkgconfig..

Basicaly, to convert to 2.2, you need to do a search/replace on
gnome-print-master..

I think Paolo choosed to use the latest version of libgnomeprintui..

I've already "ported" gthumb to libgnomeprintui 2.2 and I plan to do the
same for gal2 and gtkhtml..
