@ -126,4 +126,4 @@ Some arch-specific Tcl extensions provide a shared library and a corresponding `
If the extension does *not* provide a `+fooConfig.sh+` file, then the shared library *must not* be installed directly in `+%{_libdir}+`, but in the package-specific installation directory in `+%{tcl_sitearch}+` instead. This may require a patch to update the extension's `+pkgIndex.tcl+` file to look for the shared library in the correct location.
*Stubs are ok if put in -devel subpackage:*
Some Tcl extensions provide a static 'stub' library. Stub libraries are a Tcl-ism to provide version-independent dynamic linking on a variety of platforms. These are not normal static libraries that provide the library's actual functionality, but instead provide a level of indirection pointing to the shared library. These stub libraries do not have the same static linking issues that are generally frowned upon in Fedora, and thus are acceptable. If a package provides such a stub library, it must be placed in a -devel subpackage. More information on stubs can be found on the Tcl wiki: http://wiki.tcl.tk/285
