These are currently only source packages but each previously had a 
corresponding binary package which is still listed as a dependency of 
some other package in the distro, because the latter has yet to be 
updated by its maintainer since the renaming.  The binary packages are 
now named libglib1.2{_0,-devel} and libgtk1.2{_),-devel.

Whether or not setup.exe should handle this differently, I'll leave to 
the maintainers thereof, but just ignore these for now.
