For the static libraries, I voiced my concerns on fedora-packaging, Ralf
responded without answering my arguments, I reresponded and nothing
happened after that. Although there had been a big thread were my point
appeared clearly, and more recently in another thread about static libs
naming. Now I am tired to relaunch the subject just to have nobody
answering anything relevant, so I bypass the guidelines.
Bypassing MUST sections of the guidelines like this is just plain wrong.
If every maintainer can bypass the guidelines whenever they want there
is no point in having the guidelines.
