You could request a backport, here:

But to be honest the queue is quite long, and I haven't seen a lot of progress.

However, this has already been packaged by debian, and is available in Precise

http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/trac-wikiprint

If you really need it you could just rebuild it by downloading the .dsc, .orig.tar.gz and .debian.tar.gz from the above page.
Use

dpkg-source -X *dsc

to extract the package contents, and then follow the normal instructions from here (skipping the apt-get source step)
