- I cleaned up the %files section a bit, as you requested. The package does indeed have both libraries in /usr/lib and /usr/lib/k3d (those are plugins).

- For the undefined-non-weak-symbol warnings. I believe this is intentional. See here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2006-July/msg00569.html Essentially you are getting the warnings because the package dependencies are not installed. As for the weak linking, I believe it is intentional to allow k3d libs to link to either libGL.so from Xorg or from Nv***a.

- For the devel vs non-devel. Part of the package can be considered a devel package, but I dont think it does what a traditional devel package would do. The reasons has to do with what K-3D does: it's merely a modeler, the first step before calling the main rendering engine (e.g. aqsis, which I'll try to package next), and that step involves using the devel-type files. So the devel files are required by the main package. This is explicitely mentioned in the project page at http://www.k-3d.org/wiki/GettingStarted , as well as in comment #1 above. I brought up the issue on a fedora mailing list a while ago, but I can't seem to track it down in the archives. I remember the consensus was that it made little sense to split a package if both parts require each other. OTOH I can't say I have a strong opinion on the matter...
