Huh?  .la libtool archives in LD_LIBRARY_PATH are those used for *linking*,
so why not -devel?

E.g. /usr/lib/kde3/kded_kdeprintd.la contains

| dependency_libs=' ... /usr/lib/libkio.la ... '

--> /usr/lib/libkio.la is needed at runtime and must be in a main
package.

Not necessarily. Just because something is listed as a dependency_lib, and it is missing, does not make loading it fail. (Try it, or trust me, *I* have, for kde bits anyway).

Besides, did you miss my comment in the proposal that kde is fixable to not require .la files at runtime *at all*? (:

Saying that packager has to decide on a case-by-case base does not help;

It's better than the status-quo of saying .la files MUST (always) be omitted.
