--- Comment #6 from Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) <[email protected]> ---
I've packaged the project without looking at existing review
https://dl.kwizart.net/review/DirectX-Headers.spec


This package obviously isn't noarch as it provides a static archive (compiled
with gcc-c++). But as no debug information are extracted from static archives,
there is a need to disable debug_package (and even prevent strip from touching
the produced static archives).

About -devel/-static sub-packages, it's a moot situation IMHO:
This project relies on libd3d12.so/libd3d12core.so/libdxcore.so libraries
exposed by the WSL2 sub-system by Windows as a special directory
(/usr/lib/wsl/lib) to the given Linux userspace.
This DirectX-Headers project, hence, doesn't provided theses shared libraries
implementation at all and the static archives aren't even a minimal version of
theses. So this projects hardly fall into our category of a -devel (and
-static) sub-package, as it will miss the implementation of the library itself.
Instead, it provides a stub loader via the static archives.
So it's not even a headers only package.

So to sum-up:
- Not a -devel because it misses a proper implementation in a library
- Not a -static because it wouldn't used to distinguishes between shared/static
library and the former is missing.
- Not even a headers only because it provides a arched static archive.

My point would be to just package the project as-is and acknowledge that it
doesn't fall in our previous categories. I would like to also point that this
is clearly a development package and it shouldn't ends in end-users system by
any means, so this question has very little impact.


On my side, I'm still at a testing point about WSL2. Here a short todo:
- To verify if lto is relevant here (is disabled in mesa still today).
- others components to leverage wsl2 support.
- Compare ubuntu 22.04 support
- Documentation of the process to migrate from koji generated vanilla docker
image to a WSL2 enabled counterpart.
