I was under the impression that only libraries given as "Require" needed
to be propagated, and not "Require.private" ones. Maybe someone else can
comment?

I don't know pkgconfig much, but when in later packages in configure
tests presence with

$PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "somepackage >= version"

Missing libraries from Require.private leads to failure of configure.

You could also try to move them to normal inputs and see whether another
package depending on efl still compiles.

I'm afraid that I found what propagated-input is thanks to this. I'm
sure that elementary or others won't build without that.

Maybe I misunderstand the problem though.
