Bug 166848

Description of problem:
I'm wondering if the "Core Library" list in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
Application Compatibility - https://www.redhat.com/f/pdf/rhel4/AppCompat.pdf -
is quite complete. At least, it seems strange to me that some of the basic
libraries that the ones in the list are built on, have been left out. For
instance, if my application uses gtk, it must be linked with the following libs:

libgtk-x11
libgdk-x11
libatk
libgdk_pixbuf
libpangoxft
libpangox
libpango
libgobject
libgmodule
libdl
libglib

- Those are the libs I get if I take link options from
  pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs

Now, libgtk-x11 isn't even listed as such in the core lib list, but I'm assuming
it's implicitly included when libgtk is mentioned. The same goes for libgdk vs
libgdk_x11. But of the remaining libs, the following are also missing from Core
Libs:

libpangox
libpangoxft
libgobject

So the whitepaper really says that *all* applications using Gtk must bundle
these libs. Surely you don't mean that?

There are also other libs that may need to be reviewed for similar reasons.
These include:

libexpat
libXft
libfreetype
libfontconfig
libXrender
libtiff
libjpg

Also, I know of no lib called libgdk_pixmap, but I'm assuming libgdk_pixbuf is
actually the one you are referring to.
