Ah, I had (almost) read that but missed the part about .la files. (I'd skipped
down to the bold title).

I have already done this as suggested in comment #3:

- .la files need to be removed, add
 find . -name *.la -exec rm {} \;
to the end of the install phase


I looked at another .spec file & this appears to work:

find $RPM_BUILD_ROOT -name *.la -exec rm {} \;

Now /usr/lib/libmetalink.a is no longer packaged, I take it that's fine?
