The gtk+2 .pc file needs to be changed to mark a bunch of those Requires
as Requires.private, pkg-config provides all the necessary
infrastructure now.  (If not, please do file bugs.)

Ok, the reduces the libs list, but it also reduces the cflags list. So
much so that you can't actually compile anything gtk-related.

It'd be nice if there was a way to specify package that should be
included for the purposes cflags, but excluded for the libs.

Have a nice day,
