Originally we just didn't take the time to cover and explain corner-cases, because the longer it gets, the less easy it becomes for new contributors. As a strict "MUST NOT" it is still insufficient, as it may happen that an application still uses an old libtool ltdl to link libtool archives at run-time. You simply cannot avoid the lengthy discussion about the pitfalls of including linkable libtool archives (as outlined in the foot-note) and the consequences of exluding them or removing them when it's too late. It's similar to the "*.so -> devel" problem, which is not understood widely yet either and cannot be covered sufficiently with a one-line policy. /lib is included in run-time linker's standard search path, too, btw. -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
