I agree with Jonathan. The whole KDE software stack, kdebindings in my 
opinion fits just above kdelibs and below the applications. It is a kind 
of middleware. kdebindings should only depend on kdelibs and kdepimlibs. 
Extra bindings for things above kdelibs, e.g. workspace and runtime, 
should be done in a separate module such as kdebindings-workspace, 
kdebindings-runtime, kdebindings-edu etc etc.

Right now kdebindings depends on kdelibs and runtime which causes the 
problem for the printer applet which belongs in runtime. Richard's 
plasma work depends on runtime and should be pulled out and put in a new 
module.

cheers,
