Who is "our"? Care to write a proper description instead of pasting text out of context?

Well if you click on the linked commit you would understand that Gnome upstream removed the need of Cheese dependency. Simply drop it. You can also read that in the changelog/News of the project:

- Support for taking a selfie as your account avatar has been removed, since libcheese-gtk lacks a GTK 4 port, and the optional libcheese[-gtk] dependency is no more.
