Hi Eduardo, sorry being too late to reply, but here it goes:

As far as I understand, libgnomeprintui is just used to provide print
facilities to applications. If this is correct, it's not something
that useful for PDAs and could be made optional: you could dlopen() it
instead of link and if not available, disable (hide) menu items and
buttons that use it and make it safe by checking if function pointers
are not NULL.

With this, most people will not have to download libgnomeprintui,
neither for Abiword, Evince or Gnumeric, applications will use less
memory and will start up faster. While those that want to print from
Maemo will just install libgnomeprintui and everything will start to
work.
