Why -devel should depend on fedora-gnat-project-common?
Because the -devel package contains project files which depend on
directories.gpr, which is in fedora-gnat-project-common, and we don't currently
have a mechanism to auto-detect this dependency. It must be >= 2 because older
versions of fedora-gnat-project-common don't contain directories.gpr.

It's needed for some other packages (gprbuild and aws for example)
It sounds odd, but I suppose it's OK. It doesn't break any guideline that I can
see.

"Development/Libraries".
fixed
No, I still see "System Environment/Libraries".
> · The documentation should be in the -devel subpackage, except
for COPYING.
Why? I cannot find guidelines about it. Why README (for example) should be in
-devel?
Because the information in README is relevant only to developers who write
programs that use the library. Users who merely run programs linked to XMLada
won't be interested.

"for example API documentation belongs in the -devel subpackage"
