Yes, looks like instead of changing the postinst scripts to make scrollkeeper optional, they just added the dependency. Ironically, today dh_scrollkeeper creates a correct test. From /var/lib/dpkg/info/gnome-utils.postinst:

# Automatically added by dh_scrollkeeper
if [ "$1" = "configure" ] && which scrollkeeper-update >/dev/null 2>&1; then
        scrollkeeper-update -q >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
# End automatically added section

So the dependency could be dropped for all packages built with a sufficiently new debhelper.
