Re: [Fedora-packaging] Our static Libraries packaging guidelines once more

How much do we adhere to our Packaging Guidelines for static
libraries?

Mispackaged -static libraries:
mysql-devel from mysql-5.1.42-2.fc13.src.rpm
postgresql-devel from postgresql-8.4.2-1.fc13.src.rpm
As far as these two go, I think it's just a matter of the specfiles
dating from years before we had any such guideline, and not revisiting
the point since then. I don't have any particular objection to removing
the static versions of their libraries. On the other hand, with the
guideline being so widely ignored, I'm not in a hurry to do work to
comply with it ...
