Dear Fink developers,

Since I'm running the unstable tree, I need to compile every new package. And a 
few of them, like "cairo" have the gtk-doc BuildDepends, EVEN THOUGH it is 
compiled with --disable-gtk-doc

Normally, I won't have a problem with a superfluous BuildDepends, but in this 
case, gtk-doc requires about FORTY other packages, NONE of which I ever use. So 
I'm required to compile and install FORTY packages just to satisfy the 
installation of a simple DOC!

Can't we just have a precompiled gtk-doc ready? And why do we insist to install 
gtk-doc for everything that depends (and in case of cairo does not even depend) 
on gtk.
