I looked at that a few weeks ago, and it appears that the error is due to it looking for CUPS even when built without CUPS. More specifically, I think it's looking for the cupsd server, possibly even just files for it or some other CUPS component. Frustratingly, I managed to make it work, but upgraded the system, did not take notes of what I did, and can't seem to make it work again. In any case, it was without modifying LibreOffice, just doing ...something... which then allowed spadmin to run. I defined a couple of printers as lpr commands, and they worked.
