I guess you can reasonably start with EFL since it has few dependents.
I suppose we’ll also need a “libwacom-minimal” package no?

Or perhaps we should simply add a “lib” output since only the libwacom-*
commands depend on GTK+:

It’s not even clear that GTK+ is needed, given that it doesn’t show up
in ldd.

The same thing probably applies to libinput.

Thoughts?
