No, -development packages are provided by distros which do not
always install full packages, and typically contain headers.  We do
not split packages like that.

It looks like libxml2 is referenced in DEPENDENT_WITH_XML by GConf,
and that is a pkgconfig call for "DEPENDENT" (glib, gio, etc, etc)
and libxml-2.0.  Is libxml-2.0.pc not installed, or installed in an
unusual place (i.e. not /usr/lib/pkgconfig and not
/usr/share/pkgconfig) ?
