There is one unwritten guideline above all others. It's called "consider common sense".
Only after real guidelines.
If a -devel package included a couple of "man 3" pages for its API headers and also at least one large PDF file or a huge HTML tree, would you move _all_ %doc files into a separate -doc package?
Man file must stay in main package I though, not in -devel.
No. Nothing in the guidelines says you must decide between either -devel OR -doc. You are free to move the large files into -doc and keep other documentation files in -devel. It's the obvious solution. And convenient, too. Just as you're free to put further non-development oriented documentation files into other sub-packages.
I don't known really. I ask in devel ml: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-October/msg00109.html
The original idea to create a -examples package for only six tiny source files was a weird and unpractical idea, and I think now you just don't want to let loose. That's why you show resistance. ;)
What? Loose? What loose?? I'm 2 times remade it as you want! But also I want do work as best as can. I only search best way.
Exactly. :-) Don't treat them as good examples.
Why? I try "consider common sense". ;)
