Probably, as it pertains to printing graphics. Why on earth do you
wish to skip these important graphics building blocks? Especially
libjpeg and libpng? I can understand if you are building a server
which won't have X installed on it.

However, you've posted recently about issues with LessTif, Xpdf and
the Thunderbird Enigmail extension, hence my comment above. Chances
are if you have X installed, you already installed libpng as it is
a required dependency.

Either/or. They both provide LPR functionality. I use CUPS because
I need to interface with printers on Windows machines via Samba.
