It seems like (eg. https://packages.debian.org/unstable/libigfxcmrt-dev ;
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libigfxcmrt-dev ).

That'd be the case, but media-driver isn't the user of the library, this
library depends on media-driver (and something else can depend on this lib).

I'd say there is no point in having it as a part of intel-media-driver
directly, and (the other option) waste to just rm that file (and the entire
libigfxcmrt-devel) I guess since it gets compiled anyway?

I wouldn't say many users would install this library, and if this ever gets to
Fedora, we can add something like Requires: intel-media-driver-free or
intel-media-driver to it.

Okay, I'll keep that in mind, thanks (this is nowhere near legal ack yet
afaik)!
