Bug Description
I want to get rid of libwpg dependency, it's not a format I need, and it seems there is no problem with no libwpg.

While I understand the sentiment, libwpg is not a hard dependency. If you don't have the library installed, it doesn't build with it. However, because disabling unnecessary features is not a bad option, I applied the patch and when I configure with --disable-wpg it still configures with Libwpg support.
Please fix the patch for those that have libwpg installed to be able to disable support. BTW, distro are you on that seems to be trying to brute force all possible dependencies for you?
