 Thanks for the suggestion.  Yes, we can make it an option but I am
 not sure if we can remove the dependency by default because HTML
 support is needed in some UI of Adobe Reader such as help window.
 The parts where HTML support is needed are changing version to
 version, so I will investigate it again.

 One problem is that depending another port like linux-nvu is too big
 to install only one library.  A small port installing
 libgtkembedmoz.so only or integrating the library installation into
 the acroread8 port might be useful.
