joomla-devel would kind of imply that you're installing the "devel" 
version of it, not that it includes the devel LIBS.  This seems to be a 
standard wording for ports (see locate /usr/ports/ | grep \\\-devel | grep 
pkg-descr | xargs cat )

What makes more sense to me is that the Dev files would be part of a 
non-default option -- whether that's included with the normal .tar.gz or 
requires the github copy, I can't say.

I don't know if there's a *canonical* naming that universally means this 
is what '-devel' means.
