Description Daniel Drake 2012-12-30 13:56:43 UTC 
OLPC ships GNOME without the control center, and you can imagine the same being true for other embedded or kiosk-type distros.

Nautilus currently shows "Change Desktop Background" unconditionally on the desktop's right-click menu. If gnome-control-center is not installed, this option still appears but it does nothing.

It would be nice if this option was hidden or greyed out if gnome-control-center is not installed.

Good idea; I pushed a patch to git master that implements this.
