I know a month or so ago we voted to add a bit to the guidelines
reinforcing the necessity of -devel packages with .pc files requiring
pkgconfig. I went to file a bug about a core package that wasn't
doing this (which resulted in bustage of a package I was reviewing):
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202280
It seems Matthias Clasen (mclasen at redhat.com) wants to debate this and
I'm not sure what to do. I don't have any arguments other than
directory ownership and "that's what the committee decided".
