It's an option I've been considering. Unfortunately OSG upstream has

The devel libs conflict, so the only option I see is installing OSG-2's
devel libs into a %{_libdir}/osg-2.0 subdir.

This would be fine with me.
Trying to gain clarity on other people's opinions had been the reason
for why I am asking ;)
I had hopedn, people were answering "nobody cares about OSG-1, go ahead
