Bug#439961: please upgrade to new upstream 5.1 series

It is however also a development release.  If I package it now,
libgutenprint2 and the other libraries may have further changes made
to it before it is finalised as 5.2.0.  I don't want to cause ABI
breakage by uploading development releases.  Now, the ABI is supposed
to be guaranteed IIRC between 5.0 and 5.2, but that's not to say there
won't be slip-ups.

I would not, however, be adverse to putting it in unstable until
nearer the time for release.


Regards,
Roger
