gedit-code-assistance-0.1.2-1.fc16.src is missing BuildRequires: llvm-static [...] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Packaging_Static_Libraries_2 If a library you depend on only provides a static version your package can link against it provided that you BuildRequire the *-static subpackage. Packagers in such a situation should be aware that if a shared library becomes available, that you should adjust your package to use the shared library.
am I not linking to the shared library of llvm? or does llvm just provides a static library?
It's an automatic check that has been performed ( http://mschwendt.fedorapeople.org/staticbugstat.html ). llvm packaging is a bit unusual, so I may need to find some more time to analyze this. A first observation: llvm-devel contains many static libs, no shared ones at all. It also contains static libs for other subpackages, e.g. libclang.a whereas the shared libclang.so is in clang-devel - there is no clang-static subpackage or "Provides". That package split is somewhat unfortunate, because lots of static libs are made available to anyone who just wants the llvm-config executable. It could be that this has lead to a sporadic false positive here.

LLVM used to not even provide any shared libraries at all, and was all static. Michael, if you have any suggestion as to a fix, please file a bug against it and I'll take a look (and we could use comaintainers too)
