I originally put all modules (save for xproto) in Requires.private.
Julien suggested to put only the modules exposed in the sdk. 

As for xproto, all drivers use it explicitly and need the include path.
I thought it was safer to leave it there as there might be an older
driver that did not list xproto on the PKG_CHECK_MODULES statement and
could potentially break. I am not sure I understand why you were
suggesting that. 

Thanks
