For time-being, here is the update which is based on following text from README

    * Gutenprint permits installation of Gimp-Print 4.2 alongside
      Gutenprint 5.0, and in the future will permit concurrent
      installation of different stable versions of Gutenprint with
      different minor version numbers.  Gutenprint uses the old-style
      kernel numbering system, whereby even numbered minor versions
      are stable (4.2, 5.0, 5.2) and odd numbered minor versions are
      development (4.3, 5.1).  Therefore, you should consider allowing
      Gutenprint 5.0 and Gimp-Print 4.2 to be installed concurrently.


For CUPS sub-package ===>
 "Installing the CUPS driver for Gutenprint 5.0 will not interfere
    with your ability to continue using the Gimp-Print 4.2 CUPS
    driver."
AND
    * All files and directories with versioned names
      (e. g. cups-genppdupdate, rastertogutenprint, the PPD files) may
      be installed concurrently with other versions of Gimp-Print and
      Gutenprint as described above.  Other executables (such as the
      Canon and Epson back ends, and cups-calibrate) are not
      versioned, but are not linked against libgutenprint and do not
      have any other dependencies on Gutenprint.

For plugin sub-package which is disabled in SPEC becuase of ===>
However, the gimp plugin appears problematic:
     * The GIMP plugin, unlike the core library and the Foomatic and
      CUPS drivers, may not be installed concurrently with other
      versions.  For example, you may not install both the Gimp-Print
      4.2 and the Gutenprint 5.0 version of the Print plugin, as they
      use different configuration file formats.

I have disabled all conflicting files to be installed. 
Updated package have same versioning
