I don't see any documentation files specific to the -libs package.

Currently f2c does not require f2c-libs, and f2c-libs does not require f2c.
Should I add a requires to force one or the other, so that the license files
will always get installed? 

A similar question for mpqc. The only interpackage dependencies are mpqc-devel
requires mpqc-libs requires mpqc-data. The license files are installed in mpqc,
so if only mpqc-libs is installed, the user has no license files. What is the
general approach to such packages with multiple mostly independent subpackages.
It seems there are only three choices. Force an artifical dependency on the
subpackage that contains the license files, install multiple copies of the
license files in each independent subpackage, or allow some subpackages to
install with no license files.
