rarian is replacement for scrollkeeper it does the same thing
http://packages.debian.org/sid/rarian-compat
http://packages.debian.org/sid/scrollkeeper

my motivation for scrollkeeper was to get gnome-doc-utils working to be able to compile apps that would not otherwise compile without it - i.e. I had no interest in the actual docs produced.

..therefore I've no objection to replacing scrollkeeper

my intention for asking about it because it conflicts with rarian in gnome-desktop-base and gnome-doc-utils is a dependency of gnome-desktop-base

another solution for me is to remove scrollkeeper dependency from gnome-doc-utils
it looks like a run-time dependency so not a must have in dep list of gnome-doc-utils ?

removed
