Gnucash 2.2.1 won't print

[Dave Reiser]

Hmm. Doesn't 'sudo port install evince' take care of all the 
dependencies? I might have details of the command wrong -- I spend my 
time in fink instead. But yes, you'll need all those dependencies, but 
MacPorts is supposed to take care of them.

The other thing that comes to mind is that MacPorts version of gtk+ was 
  recently only 2.8.something. The gtkprint change (which is what you 
are running into) didn't happen until gtk+ 2.10. Have they revved up 
gtk+? Did you install it yourself separately?
