There are dozens of -devel packages, which contain static libs only, but don't provide a virtual -static package. Many of them are OCaml (ocaml-*) and Haskell (ghc-*) packages. The Haskell packaging guidelines contain a section that seems to suggest that the packages need not provide a virtual -static package: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Haskell#Static_vs._Dynamic_Linking What about OCaml? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:OCaml is not mentioning static libraries at all. What other exceptions exist? -- http://mschwendt.fedorapeople.org/staticbugstat.html -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
