You keep saying this, I'd like to see some evidence to support that.

Example below. why do I need all these dependencies, when I only link
directly with gtk3 widgets?

headers is the usual reason.

Yes, read your other email about headers and Requires.private. On another email I found another example, where no headers are referenced (copy the relevant info here), but I don't think it is easy to detect those cases only if pkgconfig's Requires.private is filtered

  # rpm -q --requires krb5-devel | grep libselinux-devel
  libselinux-devel

  # rpm -ql krb5-devel | grep \\.h$ | xargs grep -l selinux
  <None>

  # grep Requires.private /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libselinux.pc
  Requires.private: libsepol libpcre2-8
