gtk-doc recipe does have a direct dependency on python3-six, subject to 
'api-documentation' in DISTRO_FEATURES. The reason it's conditional is 
that we don't want to build a ton of gtk-doc dependencies in the default 
case that used by almost everyone. Yes, this produces gtk-doc scripts 
that are not working, but they will not be run anyway, if gtk-doc 
capable recipes inherit the gtk-doc class, which will disable the 
gtk-doc feature. libunique was missing that inherit, the patch to fix 
that is now on oe-devl list. Take it and the issue will go away.
