From item #3:

When a package only provides static libraries you can place all the

It seems like we should only have a Provide for *-static-noshared as
this is a special case of item #2. Thoughts on that?
I actually think we only should have a Provide for *-static, so that people who
want to use static libs now and in the future (when there may be a shared
version) , can guarantee they will get the static version by BuildRequiring the
-static, since very few packages will ever have a real *-static-noshared,
having a virtual provides for this feels wrong.
