Re: comment 5

First of all, no strong objections with regard to using the term "library" in a
generic way. Similar to the term "archive", which is not limited to
tar/tgz/zip/… file types.

It's okay to write "GLM is a C++ library ...", although it is just a collection
of header files. I didn't object to doing that.

That's an _is a_ relation, whereas a _contains_ relation is more complicated:
The spec file said: "... package contains libraries and header files", which is
plural (=> "library files and header files"), which was duplicate and very
ambiguous as the package contains only header files.

There's a description at the web page, which also explains the "GLM" acronym,
btw:

| OpenGL Mathematics (GLM) is a header only C++ mathematics library
| for graphics software based on the OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL)
| specification. 


Re: comment 6

Current rpmlint was only included for completeness, making it explicit which
two files are affected. It could be that other builds would end up with a
different set of empty files, for exaple. ;)
