So, we should get rid of the six remaining -devel-static packages then.
One is in F12 "updates", btw. ;)  One at RPM Fusion.

Though, without hanging around on IRC I still don't know whether I could
simply go ahead and fix the packages for F13 devel or if this would be
a case of filing tickets and waiting many months for a reaction.

Well, I do too, but that's the theory only as I've found two review
requests that create the full set of libfoo, libfoo-static + virtual
libfoo-devel and libfoo-devel-static in libfoo-static.
