libgnomeprintui relies on gnome-icon-theme being present for the icons it uses. The configure.in explicitly checks the presence of this package, that's why I think it is needed. Putting it as a Recommends: instead sounds reasonable as we haven't received any reports of a failure without gnome-icon-theme installed. -- .''`.
