They are wrong. These are core packages that were not reviewed until 
recently  and many had packaging issues, this will hopefully be solved soon.
(you could even report those issues on the merge review tickets, though
somebody already did it unless I'm wrong).

It is a question that isn't completely agreed. My personal opinion 
is that scripts in /etc/init.d and /etc/profile.d shouldn't be %config
at all. If I recall well, previously I did differently - and I accept
other contributors view.

I think that you could submit them right now, and have oyranos 
depend on that ticket

Requires(postun): /sbin/ldconfig
isn't needed, with %postun -p the dependency is added automatically.

Otherwise
- I'd like to keep the statically compiled executable, but it could
  be done later when elektra is used in such a way that it needs 
  to be there for recovery. What I'd like is to have the library 
  static package be called static-devel (or devel-static) such that
  the static name is kept for later use for executables.
- your way to package doc is certainly better than mine because
  it will certainly work better with --short-circuit
- about putting things not in /bin and /sbin, it's fine for me, also
  could be reverted if elektra is needed for recovery
- Putting the include file in elektra/ subdirectory implies a change
  in the .pc file(s)

I still haven't ssen the resulting names, to see if it isn't too much
transformation and if it works.
