Looking more closely at the upstream changes, this is absolutely not
necessary since everything needed is already in the 2.2.9 version.

Gnucash has supported GtkHtml 3.14 and GtkPrint since MARCH 2007. There
have been 16 UPLOADS of gnucash since that day, yet the gnomeprint
dependency is still here, meaning there is half-broken printing support
using unmaintained libraries.

Note that it has also supported goffice 0.8 since june 2006. I’m not
talking about guile 1.8, and there are probably other similar jokes.

FYI, I’m going to request the removal of gtkhtml3.8 and goffice0.4 right
now.

Cheers,
