Comment 7 for bug 874660

Adding --disable-gestures to /usr/share/applications/evince.desktop is only a parital solution for me. I often start evince from the shell and then the annoying gestures are back...
How can anybody include such a half-baked feature without the ability to properly turn it off?

What I would expect is the possibility to turn off gestures for evince (and other possibly broken apps) through gconf or even better: Have libgrip as an optional dependency so one can just `apt-get purge libgrip0` similar to how you get rid ot the overlay-scrollbars...
