Comment(by AlbertCahalan):

 I can drop printing support. If printing is something the laptop is
 intended to have, then libpaper should get shipped with the laptop. It's
 possible that Tux Paint could go back to printing without libpaper; the
 libpaper solution produces paper-specific postscript and thus needs to
 query the printer, have a config file somewhere on the system, or guess
 based on locale.

 The rest of the problem is that Sugar will supposedly rename packages. It
 might not in fact do this currently. Even if it does, it really ought to
 bind-mount them onto a well-known location so that absolute paths are
 legit. I can deal with this in Tux Paint, with massive Makefile hacking,
 but that solution only fixes the problem in one single program. Sugar
 changes would fix that for every program.
