Yelp has had an optional Beagle dependency for at least 2 years. It's optional, and it's not news. If maintainers want to add optional dependencies on things that might be perceived as contravening your ideology, simply don't compile your application with it. I should also note that Yelp doesn't depend on Beagle in that particular distro, but on a C library that can call into beagle itself. FWIW, a Tracker-based search has recently been contributed to Totem, and I'd be happy to accept a Beagle one.
