--- Comment #4 from Cole Robinson <[email protected]> ---
I think my original suggestion to call this `libigvm` is wrong, sorry. yeah a
libigvm.a is being installed, but the .pc file is `igvm.pc` and the upstream
repo is called `igvm`. So I think this package should be called `igvm`.

igvm here is _only_ a static library. So the package layout is a bit
interesting. With libs like glib2, pcre2, glibc you'll have package hierarchy
like

glib2 (or some packages call this NAME-libs)
  files: lib/*.so.*

glib2-devel
  files: lib/*.so , pkgconfig, /usr/include
  Requires: glib2

glib2-static
  files: lib/*.a
  Requires: glib2-devel

But since libigvm doesn't have .so files at all, `libigvm` doesn't exist, and
`libigvm-devel` on its own is pointless.
So I _think_ this should stuff pkgconfig and /usr/include bits into
libigvm-static, and kill the libigvm-devel package too.
If something changed and libigvm ever becomes dynamically linkable as well, the
package can switch to the above ideal layout easypeasy.

@[email protected] can you sanity check me here, does all that sound
reasonable?
