So if possible I would suggest to follow Fedora (because they did that already years ago) and rename it to glibc-static too.
-devel is redundant with -static, all static libs are "devel" parts. So yes, glibc-static would be ok I guess.
Maybe one could complain about Packaging guidelines: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_guidelines#Static_Libraries But probably would be good to review that point generally. We have only about 30 packages with substring "static". Some of them are "-devel-static" and some "-static" only. So status quo is a littly inconsistent anyway. What about following fedora where all these packages are simply "-static". For compatibility keeping "devel-static" provides of course. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
