PAPI builds the static library. This might have been used because of the lack
of share library versioning:

Or because some PAPI targets do not support shared libraries (IBM blue gene):

http://ipm-hpc.sourceforge.net/installation.html

However, on Fedora it would probably be reasonable to remove the static
libraries as mentioned at:
