16 gtk-doc should probably be disabled when rebuilding because a lot of
17 packages probably load already installed library when running gtk-doc
18 scanner which would cause this kind of problem. This has been reported
19 upstream but upstream says gtk-doc using packages should fix
20 LD_LIBRARY_PATH or whatever before running the scanner.
21
22 In any case, gnome team decided to remove the doc building option in the
23 mid-term so this problem will just vanish.
