[ovs-dev] [PATCH] rhel: Don't ship static libraries

[Timothy Redaelli]

Since commit bc4fd439586f ("rhel: Ship ovs shared libraries, fedora")
openvswitch-devel RPM package includes both static and shared library.
This is against the Fedora Packaging Guidelines [1].

This commit prevent the static libraries and libtool archives to be shipped.
