[Evolution] Bug#726053: evolution-dev: Package gtk-doc files separately (evolution-doc)

Package: evolution-dev
Severity: wishlist

I'm lead maintainer of Evolution and I do most of my Evolution development
these days on Debian stable.

Currently there's a bunch of API documentation files in the evolution-dev
package.  I was hoping you could split these off into a separate "evolution-
doc" package as you have with "evolution-data-server-doc", just so I can
install the Evolution API documentation from more recent versions in
testing..experimental without having to upgrade my whole desktop to satisfy
Evolution's build dependencies.

I like having the API docs up in Devhelp as I work.  This package split would
be most helpful to me.
