[Fedora-packaging] libspotify

Hi,

I'm considering packaging libspotify (it's a library for accessing the
spotify music service), but it has a couple of problems.

The licence is MIT, which is fine. However, for a user to be able
connect to spotify, they have to email spotify to obtain a file which
registers them. It also requires a .la file which is against the
packaging rules.

Spotify have very little interest in their library, so there would
probably be little that they would do to remove this .la file and
without it, the package won't install locally.

Any comments or advice on this?

TTFN

Paul
