Ernst,

I highly recommend just starting at 2.0.  It should be much easier to
get running because I include all the gimp-print source code that
you need.  As Daniel says in his post there is just a minor Makefile
change needed. If your friend has done a bunch of Linux before he
can probably just edit it, but I'd be glad to send that your way if needed.
