Building API documentation for frameworks

[Marie Loise Nolden]

Hi Anna,

you may want to only split out the index files into the -devel packages and 
you're good to go.

I did that with fedora packages when adding the -doc packages, so those don't 
have to be added to the builds themselves, you just require the .index files 
like Nicolas wrote.

Kind regards,

Loise
