So I found this morning when I pulled in the tarball.   Given fedora's 
previously glacial acceptance of gutenprint, I expected the shipped version 
to be well out of date, and was surprised to see it was current, and that it 
is gutenprint itself that is lagging.  My apologies for the noise.

Time to rejoin the developers list I guess.
