oops... I just noticed you opened this up against Fedora 15... reopening...
libevent-2.0.10-3.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libevent-2.0.10-3.fc15
By moving the man pages into the "proper" place, I know get the following confliction: rpm -Uhv /tmp/libevent-* Preparing... ########################################### [100%] file /usr/share/man/man3/error.3.gz from install of libevent-devel-2.0.10-3.fc15.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-3.32-8.fc15.noarch file /usr/share/man/man3/free.3.gz from install of libevent-devel-2.0.10-3.fc15.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-3.32-8.fc15.noarch file /usr/share/man/man3/major.3.gz from install of libevent-devel-2.0.10-3.fc15.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-3.32-8.fc15.noarch file /usr/share/man/man3/minor.3.gz from install of libevent-devel-2.0.10-3.fc15.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-3.32-8.fc15.noarch So I'm think moving the man pages back into /usr/share/doc would be good...
I get these errors when trying to install the current version in updates-testing.

Steve, can you fix the man page conflict issue? I don't expect such breakages in the regular Fedora 15 updates.

I'm thinking not... So Lets just stop shipping the man pages in F16 and I'll put things back where they were in f15 Basically this means reverting commit a4868f1d, don't do any update (wihch I've already deleted) and close this bug as wontfix.
