That's what I am doing now, *but* the strange thing is, I now get build failure 
because of two *new* unpackaged files:

%{_datadir}/systemtap/tapset/glib.stp
%{_datadir}/systemtap/tapset/gobject.stp

I presume these are destined to be in the -devel package so I'll include them 
there myself. Max is right though - indeed the -static package covers both 
libglib-2.0 and libgthread-2.0, so I am just compiling the source rm at present 
and will update the devel and static packages when it is done. Will let you 
know how it goes.
