+%description devel
+%{libname} can be used independently of YaST for generic (C++) applications
+and has very few dependencies.
+
+You do NOT need this package for developing with %{libname}. Use of
+%{libname}-devel is sufficient for such purpose.
+This package is only needed when you want to develop an extension for
+%{name} which is not covered within the UI-plugin.
