So
tracker --> everything daemon related
tracker-devel --> the devel libraries

Desktop related

tracker-search-tool --> GUI
libdeskbar-tracker --> deskbar integration

This lay-out would be accepted from both debian/ubuntu and fedora ?

the main idea is to provide the info to the user what are the packages
that have no desktop dependencies.

I want to put this info on the website to encourage people to try
tracker due the fact they don't have to install gnome libraries that
maybe they don't want.

However I don't want to say to the distro developer... "hey, let's pack
this in this way or in this other way ..." because this is not the point :P

So any suggestion to achieve the above goal is very welcome.

Of course one common lay-out for the tracker packages is easy to write
and will create less confusion :).
