Installing the gstreamer -meta packages was not possible, because the
-apps and -glib packages were missing. Allowing for empty -apps/glib
packages fixes this.

From what I can tell there's only one -apps package
(gst-plugins-base-apps) and one -glib package (gst-plugins-bad-glib),
so why not add those extra dependencies in -base and -bad explicitly
instead of creating empty packages for no reason?

True, however I wonder if somebody relies on these packages being there.
Is it acceptable to break compatibility here?
