Actually, the library contains fonts... So it's very big (30-40 MB). You need at least mutools (for cups-filters) and one mupdf (for displaying pdf's). With a static library, both would contain that big copy of the fonts. I think mupdfraster may be handy sometimes (replaces pdf2something). So that would be another big copy of the fonts... Why they can't use system fonts is another question, though...
