--- Comment #8 from Dridi Boukelmoune <dridi.boukelmoune(a)gmail.com> ---
Justin, a static library is not code you run, but code you (statically) link to
as part of a build process, that's why I moved it to the -devel sub-package. It
could have also lived in a -static sub-packages too, you can find such
occurrences in the repositories.
Fabio, I know that our guidelines strongly advise against static linking (and
bundling in general) but I find it sad to prevent end-users to statically build
software on top of Fedora if that's what they want and upstream provides the
means. But if that's our guidelines, I can live without the static library and
I personally don't care since I integrate %{_bindir}/playerctl in my local
setup.
Thanks for your help with the review, I'll wait for an update until the
sponsorship is solved to formally review the package.
