How about we follow what Fedora does
Again and again I see: "Fedora does…". Why do we need to follow Fedora every step?
We are openSUSE! We have a good practice as it is in our distribution.
We don't, but the more core stuff like packaging that we do in as close a way as possible, the less effort required for everyone involved, especially those working across both distros.
Indeed. And in this particular case we already do mostly what Fedora (or Debian for the matter) does re static libs: namely put them into their own package or into the -devel package. (I.e. not what Dan thought Fedora does). I feel Dan wants to talks about some very specific static libs, not about all of them (for which we don't want to change anything for exactly the reasons already mentioned in this thread). Some static libs that he (and others?) call bundled. I admit I don't know what that should be, and why they would be handled different from normal static libs (i.e. be frowned upon generally). So, if anything, Dan needs to explain in more detail what he wants, for which things and for which reasons. Ciao, Michael.
