Hi Christophe,
since the .c files appear to be fundamental for the functionality of
make-it-quick, I'd rather silence this one specific check via an
rpmlintrc file instead of renaming them or converting this into a -devel
package.
Renaming them is probably a lot more work and calling it -devel will
confuse end users. Both are imho not worth it just for the sake of
silencing a single rpmlint warning.
Cheers,
Dan

Hi,
I think there is (or at least, there used to be) a section in the packaging guidelines which explicitly mentions that including both .c and .h files in non-devel packages is fine (and indeed, expected) for compilers and build tools which need those files at runtime.
