No, the issue is polkit running automake, and having glue that requires gtk-doc to be around, which ends up pulling doxygen and a lot of other things. The irony is that polkit is configured --disable-gtk-doc, so the only reason you get doxygen is because maintainer does want as few patches as possible from upstream...
