Well, you really don't have to that for this case. The gtk20 rpm should
include a Provides tag for what it contains. 

For instance for gtk20.spec, this would be:
Provides: gdk2 = %{version}
Provides: gdk-pixbuf2 = %{version}

and so on. This will be the clean solution. A transaction table is still
needed, but gobject-2.0 should not be converted into glib2, but instead
gobject2.
