I don't like doing things for the sole reason that 8 other packages did
it that way :)

Is there a _reason_ that .so goes in devel?  I mean, it's just a symlink
to the other .so.* files...  .a i can understand, it's only needed for
linking (which you'd only do during compiling), but I don't get the .so.
Maybe this is a failure of mine to understand why there are three .so*
files per lib anyway.  Anyone care to explain or have a url that does?

I'll look for it on the list, but if you were to say, email it to me
offlist, I'd probably do it faster :)
