The glib-reference-1.1.1 package is mainly for authors - you need special
tools to build the final documentation (see www.gtk.org/rdp),
and you have to use commands like 'make sgml', 'make html' to build it.

The final HTML docs are in separate packages glib-docs-html-1.1.1.tar.gz
and gtk-docs-html-1.1.1.tar.gz. (The latter includes the former so you don't
need both.)
