It's definitely in there on a Devuan install with the mate desktop, haven't tried a Devuan install with any of the other DE's.

Mate still has some minor dependencies here and there on some gnome libraries too,
some I can't get rid of, but found several that I could, don't know why they're still there...
maybe some of the other stuff I dumped needed them.
