What about making new categories for all the GNOME-dependent stuff,
similar to X11?  I think that's very helpful.  We've been using the
following, but maybe you want something slightly different:

GNOME2-apps GNOME2-libs GNOME2-libs-devel GNOME2-doc ...

| Devel package setup.hint:
| ===
| category: Libs
| requires: glib
| sdesc: "headers and import libraries for glib"

I think "category: Libs Devel" is more appropriate here, if you don't
make GNOME2-* categories.

| Doc package setup.hint:
| ===
| category: Libs Doc
| sdesc: "HTML docs and manpages for glib"
