gconf schemas + .desktop file question

[Alexey Dokuchaev]

hi there,

i'm currently working on `graphics/ufraw' port and thinking if it should
install files mentioned in ${subj}.  the port provides them, but i am not
sure if it's ok to enable installation thereof.

my hesitation is due to the fact that i don't use gnome, gconf, or related
crap; i believe those things are badly implemented and contradict unix
philosophy.  nonetheless, if presence of these files would not hurt purists
like me, and does not require any dependencies, why not?  maybe it would
be useful for people that are deeply in the gnome camp.

thus my question is: is it ok to install them without setting some
USE_GNOME=gconf magic and calling `update-desktop-database' in makefile?
i'd rather not pull these dependencies, but if i have too, i'd appreciate
some hints of what should i include if corresponding OPTION would be set.

so far i may just install them as plain files, with no gnomish dependencies
recorded.

thanks.
