[snip] One thing I wonder is if any of these might need to become a Require when we are providing a libweston library API?
From [1] which references [2], a lot of pkg-config files are doing it wrong. Requires should only be used in rare cases (though it appeared quite late in pkg-config, and most projects just didn’t update). I believe the most common case is with GObject: the G_TYPE_CHECK_* macros are calling g_type_check_* functions which are libgobject-2.0.so symbols.
In Weston, we have no such thing, so we are safe.
