Packaging static libraries is a bit unusual in Fedora, since it is better to link things dynamically; only few packages provide static libraries. The -devel package usually only contains development headers and the .so symlink to the dynamic library, so in 99% of the cases you just make the -static package require the -devel package, which contains all of the necessary stuff. -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
