After looking at this more closely, the comment is a little misleading,
since the libsoup-2.4.pc does not actually refer to glib-networking. 
What is the rationale behind this propagation?
In v1 you claimed the .pc file mentions this, but I don't see any of
it:
libsoup-2.4.pc:Requires: glib-2.0 >=  2.58, gobject-2.0 >=  2.58, gio-
2.0 >=  2.58
libsoup-2.4.pc:Requires.private: libxml-2.0, sqlite3, libpsl >=  0.20,
libbrotlidec, zlib
libsoup-gnome-2.4.pc:Requires: libsoup-2.4
libsoup-gnome-2.4.pc:Requires.private: glib-2.0 >=  2.58, gobject-2.0
>=  2.58, gio-2.0 >=  2.58, libxml-2.0, sqlite3, libpsl >=  0.20,
libbrotlidec, zlib

In fact, I had a look at the libsoup source, and even there, using
2.99.4, which is the latest *unstable* release (as opposed to the
lastest stable release), the glib_deps from which the pkg-config file
is formed, says:
  glib_deps = [glib_dep, gobject_dep, gio_dep]

There doesn't even seem to be a pkg-config file for glib-networking.
(Note: I'm running my checks on master to avoid the rebuilds, that come
from wip-gnome, but wip-gnome appears to package the same version, so
there shouldn't be a difference)

Regards,
Leo
