I don't know how to properly stop it building, or turn it off but I can
tell you the cause.

Running bitbake -g core-image-minimal outputs the dependency graphs, and
by examining that it seems as though the following packages pull in
gtk-doc related packages.

"connman" -> "gtk-doc-stub-native"
"kmod-native" -> "gtk-doc-stub-native"
"kmod" -> "gtk-doc-stub-native"
"glib-2.0" -> "gtk-doc-stub-native"
"glib-2.0-native" -> "gtk-doc-stub-native"

Now, all these packages are gtk-doc-stub[-native], which is described as:

DESCRIPTION = "Stub implementation of gtk-doc, as we don't want to build
the API documentation"

So it sounds like gtk-docs aren't actually being built, but the stubs
provide enough to make the package think they're being built...

That's all I know, someone with more gtk knowledge than me can probably
fill in the reason for why it's required to build those packages.

Cheers,
