I recommend to drop these packages from official repos:
- libgnomecups
- libgnomeprint
- diacanvas
- gnuconcept

Reason:
These libraries are really old, and nothing use them except gnuconcept. But gnuconcept is also a broken, five years old package.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Implemented
Additional comments about closing:  All packages are history now. Moved to AUR as far as they're not broken.

Removed some of these libraries. The ones removed are no longer in the bugreport now.
