From bug 560927

>>> You told me on desktop-devel-list it would be too hard to check at runtime,

>> I guess we could check at build time, and look for devkit-gobject. One thing

As I was triaging my bugs I decided to file this one.

Comment 3 Frederic Peters 2009-01-28 09:24:24 UTC 
Well, it made sense as an hint to use legacy code; but I don't think it is useful in the current condition, as there was no build time dependency on DeviceKit.
