The hdf-devel package needs to Provides: hdf-static = %{name}-%{version}. Also, I get the impression from the HDF configure script that it is able to build a shared library, but a shared library is not built.
(In reply to comment #0) > The hdf-devel package needs to Provides: hdf-static = %{name}-%{version}. Right you are. Fixed in 4.2r4-2 in rawhide. I'm not going to push a F-10 package just for this, but it is in CVS in case there is a later F-10 update. Thanks. > Also, I get the impression from the HDF configure script that it is able to > build a shared library, but a shared library is not built. See bug #228134.
