Don't error out if vapigen isn't found (742 bytes, patch)

Description chris.dukes.aix 2012-10-12 15:13:22 UTC 
For various reasons, vala-vapigen from FreeBSD's ports remains at 0.12.1.
the gssdp port is configured with --enable-introspection.
This is fine if gssdp is built before any software that depends on vapigen.
However, if gssdp is built later it fails as vapigen is not 0.14 or higher, unless I manually rename the vapigen executable, build gssdp, then rename the vapigen executable back

Having the ability to provide a parameter to configure such as 
--disable-vapigen
would allow a minor change to the port to allow this package to build properly until vapigen is upgraded.

Thanks,
Chris Dukes

The intention was that vapi generation is skipped if vapigen wasn't found. Thanks for noticing.

Needs fixing in the rest of the libraries as well.
