--- Comment #3 from Eric Smith <spacewar@xxxxxxxxx> ---
The easiest thing to do for the xpm library is delete the bundled library and
use the system library in its place. I now have that working.

Spec URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~brouhaha/icon/icon.spec
SRPM URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~brouhaha/icon/icon-9.5.20h-2.fc31.src.rpm

I could move icall.h to a -devel subpackage, but it would be the only file in
that subpackage, which is why I hadn't done that. If you really think that's
the right thing, I'll do it.

I'm reluctant to version the .so because:
1)  upstream doesn't version it, and Icon programs that use it wouldn't know to
look for a versioned library.
2)  it's not intended for use by any other package. The only use of it is by
Icon programs, to call external C functions that weren't necessarily intended
to be called by Icon. It's not anything useful for non-Icon programs as might
be present in other Fedora packages. As such, it might be better placed in
libexec, but Icon programs wouldn't know to look for it there, so I'd rather
leave it in libdir.
