So I think what I'm saying is that the nouveau support in
intel-gpu-tools isn't the project's primary purpose, so we should
allow it to build without nouveau support if you don't have nouveau
installed. If you don't have nouveau installed, you're not making a
mistake by not building intel-gpu-tools without support. And if you
have nouveau installed, you still get nouveau support.
