I guess that in this case "no-nonsense" is "common sense". :-)
I agree that by default the packages should not ship a static library unless
there is a good reason otherwise.
It think that this view is consensual, my trouble above is with "common
sense" and "good reason". As a first step I would trust packagers, it is the
easiest, if that does not work well... troubles ahead. :-)
The next step is what is a "good reason"? If necessary this should be
defined by the steering committee.
