+%description devel-static
+LZO is a portable lossless data compression library written in ANSI C.
+It offers pretty fast compression and very fast decompression.
+Decompression requires no memory. LZO is suitable for data
+de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over
+compression ratio.
