Description Kevin Kofler 2014-10-25 04:42:37 UTC 
Description of problem:
Several packages, e.g. phonon-qt5, ship Qt Designer plugins. Those are in the main package because some bindings (notably PyQt) also use them at runtime. Unfortunately, this currently makes them drag in the whole qt5-qttools package. The library needs to be packaged separately.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qt5-qttools-5.3.2-1.fc21

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install phonon-qt5

Actual results:
All of qt5-qttools dragged in (including dependencies such as clucene09-core).

Expected results:
Only the library gets dragged in.
Comment 1 Kevin Kofler 2014-10-25 14:06:00 UTC 
Looking at what the main package contains, I suggest 2 additional subpackages:

keep in qt5-qttools:
%{_bindir}/qdbus-qt5
%{_bindir}/qtpaths
%{_qt5_bindir}/qdbus*
%{_qt5_bindir}/qtpaths

qt5-qtdesigner-libs or qt5-designer-libs:
%{_qt5_libdir}/libQt5Designer.so.5*
%{_qt5_libdir}/libQt5DesignerComponents.so.5*

qt5-qthelp:
%{_qt5_libdir}/libQt5CLucene.so.5*
%{_qt5_libdir}/libQt5Help.so.5*

move to -devel (belongs to Linguist and should not be needed at runtime):
%{_qt5_datadir}/phrasebooks/
Comment 2 Kevin Kofler 2014-10-25 14:10:36 UTC 
PS: Or if something does need the phrasebooks at runtime, put them into a third new subpackage (like qt5-linguist-phrasebooks).
Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2014-10-25 21:10:57 UTC 
I agree with comment #1 , let's go with that plan.
Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2014-10-25 21:31:51 UTC 
working on it...
Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2014-10-25 21:42:13 UTC 
Based on this, looks like we may want more than 2 subpkgs.  either 3 (one for each of the first 2, another for the rest), or 4 (one for each library).
