The question is:
to split or not to split?
35MB is big or not?

If split, then every single library in separate package.
It will be easier to package this way. But what with plugins?

If split, then split other qt5-libraries.
IMO: Naming convention: specs like in Fedora qt5-qtbase.spec, qt5-
qtxmlpatterns.spec, etc.
Package names like: Qt5Xml , Qt5Xml-devel, qt5-qtbase-doc, qt5-qtbase-
examples. Libraries like in qt4, docs and examples take names from specs.

But, I'm against splitting qt5-qtbase at all.
