Adding runtime dep of yelp to gnome apps breaks +quartz variant

[c.herbig@…]

Yelp does not compile for +quartz due to some X11 specific calls in the yelp-application.c file. Forcing it as a dependency, even though these programs technically do not depend on it (unless you want to browse the help), breaks the ability to even run them at all.

Specifically it is the function application_uri_resolved, if this could be fixed:

...
...
...
yelp_window_load_uri (window, uri);

    gtk_widget_show_all (GTK_WIDGET (window));

    /* Metacity no longer does anything useful with gtk_window_present */
    gdk_window = gtk_widget_get_window (GTK_WIDGET (window));
    if (gdk_window)
        gdk_x11_window_move_to_current_desktop (gdk_window);

    /* Ensure we actually present the window when invoked from the command
     * line. This is somewhat evil, but the minor evil of Yelp stealing
     * focus (after you requested it) is outweighed for me by the major
     * evil of no help window appearing when you click Help.
     */
    if (data->timestamp == 0)
        data->timestamp = gdk_x11_get_server_time (gtk_widget_get_window (GTK_WIDGET (window)));

    gtk_window_present_with_time (GTK_WINDOW (window), data->timestamp);

    g_free (data);
}

then everything should be fine. I would imagine that since a +quartz environment doesn't need metacity, it could perhaps be patched out...
