Tim, I think for the purposes of a "Qt-less" HPLIP, you could create a 
RPM without:

toolbox.py
sendfax.py*
fab.py*
ui/ directory*
plugins/ directory
hpfax.py*
HP-Fax-hplip.ppd*
coverpages.py*

*Note: Except that I am working on a GUI-less version of faxing for the 
command line as it has been requested by some users. So, in the next few 
releases, the fax stuff could be added back into a QT-less 
version/package of HPLIP.

The other issue with a QT-less RPM is that some of the commandline 
utilities (hp-print, hp-makecopies, hp-unload, etc) support both a GUI 
mode and a console mode, but they default to GUI mode. I could create an 
override in the .conf file to control the default, or you could patch 
the files to change the default. The other option is to have them enter 
console mode automatically when PyQt, Qt, or X is not present/running.
