I don't see how this is a blocker, independent of libtheora-devel being fixed
this package must still own /usr/include/theora, because quoting from the review
guidelines:
"MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does not create
a directory that it uses, then it should require a package which does create
that directory."

And since this package does not and will not Require libtheora-devel, because it
simply doesn't need it, it thus MUST own that directory. And having multiple
owners for directories, although undesirable is not a blocker.
