>Description:

	Some gnome apps, like ggv and gpdf, use a gnome help viewer to
	display help information. Unfortunately, they don't directly
	depend on said help viewer, so if you build just the app
	without building all the rest of the gnome metapkg, you don't
	get help when you click on help in the apps.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Build "ggv" or "gpdf" (and probably other apps) without
	building the rest of gnome.

>Fix:

	Presumably, the dependency should be made explicit.
