Yes, im coming to the conclusion that libsoup and its xmlrpc functions 
would probably the most Gtk'ish way of doing my stuff.

About you packages, it says:

sbox-CHINOOK_ARMEL ~ $ apt-get install libsoup2.2-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libsoup2.2-dev: Depends: libgnutls-dev (>= 1.4.0) but it is not going
to be installed
E: Broken packages

Where do i find libgnutls-dev for maemo?

Also there are no x86 packages for libsoup in extras, but i guess those aren't really necessary.
