I'm trying to extract as much knowledge and opinion from your packaging as
possible ;-)

Can you be more specific? Which library/binary, and where are the statements of
BSD license?

Yes, but that is data for libfreerdpkbd and not intended to be used or seen in
other ways.

I would expect "foo-devel" to contain the headers etc for libraries in "foo".
The devel stuff for "foo-common" should be in "foo-common-devel"?

You don't know why?

I will investigate further.

Yes, "consider" preserving timestamps. Something less vague could be nice. Now
it is up to my preference to focus on simple spec and legibility or on
preserving timestamps - that is bad for consistency ...
