Description of problem: .prl files that should be shipped with qt6-qtdeclarative-devel are instead shipped with qt6-qtdeclarative-static: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/qt6-qtdeclarative/blob/f36/f/qt6-qtdeclarative.spec#_290 Most of these refer to shared libraries. Only these specific files refer to static libraries: libQt6PacketProtocol.prl libQt6QmlCompiler.prl libQt6QmlDebug.prl libQt6QmlDom.prl libQt6QmlLint.prl libQt6QuickControlsTestUtils.prl libQt6QuickTestUtils.prl Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): qt6-qtdeclarative-6.3.1-2.fc36.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo dnf install qt6-qtdeclarative-devel Actual results: /usr/lib64/libQt6Qml.prl and other .prl files are missing Expected results: .prl files for shared libraries are installed Additional info: I stumbled on this working on CXX-Qt which gets the linker flags to pass to Cargo by parsing .prl files: https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt/blob/33d1578c699e6b8fe3c0d205030a0c6973e829a4/crates/qt-build/src/lib.rs#L227
