No these libraries are not Ubuntu specific but they depend on the
distros packagers of course.

But they should absolutly not be required to build java-gnome or any
kinds of programs (in C people use #ifdef things to know if the code
should compile with appindicator/libindicate support).

I thought about adding support for those libraries (well Francisco was
faster than me :D) but I was stucking on "they should be optional not
required".
