I think I heard somewhere that you have a kind of dummy gtk-doc to satisfy the build deps. I wonder if we can fix this somehow better. Can you either ping me in #gtkdoc (gimpnet-irc), write to gtk-doc mailing list or even to me in person and describe the problem. Also let me know where I can look at the dummy package that you are using.
