This has no effect on systems without TeXLive installed. --wrap-mode=nodownload: This switch disables fetching any dependency: the build system tries to fetch gi-docgen even if -Dgtk_doc=false is passed. -Dgtk_doc=false: &gi-doc-disable; : This switch turns off support for the spell checking plugin. : Use this option if you don't have built with GObject Introspection and don't wish to have introspection support built into Evince. : This switch disables building the Nautilus Plugin.
