Apologies, I got really busy and put the ticket up for others to take but no
one did.  Your pages are much nicer than what I could have come up with
though :-)

The one thing that I notice in them is the Requires(post)/Requires(postun)
section.  If I'm reading how those scripts work correctly we shouldn't need
those as long as 1) glib2, gdk-pixbuf2, and gtk3 also invoke those helper
programs in their scriptlets and 2) the modules and loaders generate an
automatic dependency on glib2, gtk3, or gdk-pixbuf2.

For GSettings, I don't have the information to write up a nice paragraph
like you did for the other three.  Would you be willing to finish this page?

I've added all of the pages to the ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/3

the next FPC meeting is tomorrow morning 16:00 UTC.  If we get updates on
the things here, I think these will pass pretty quickly.
