>From the gutenprint front page: "Gutenprint was formerly called Gimp-Print."

This program has had a change of name in version 5.0.  I have a feeling if it
had simply kept it's old name, we'd just drop gimp-print 4.2.x and upgrade
gimp-print to version 5.0. That's all this essentially is. Yes, you can install
them side-by-side, simply because it's a major upgrade (think: installing OOo1 &
OOo2 at the same time).

It seems to me that this isn't really an /extras/ package conflicting with a
/core/ package, it's a /core/ package which has seen major improvements and now
has a new name. I hope we don't get stuck with the old printing capabilities of
gimp due to this...

We didn't keep phoenix in parallel just because it was renamed firefox (by way
of hypothetical example)...

My two pence. :)  /me out
