There are two options:

1) Ask the upstream if they have the API stabilized. If yes, then patch the
Makefile etc to build shared library with proper soname. The tivodecode
executable has to link to this library dynamically. The library file goes to
the libs subpackage and the header files go to the devel subpackage. Then both
the main package and the devel subpackage will require the libs subpackage.

2) If the API is unstable, then put the static library and the header files in
devel subpackage and add "Provides: %{name}-static = %{version}-%{release}" to
the devel subpackage.

I think it should go like
   tivodecode-0.2-0.1.pre4
   tivodecode-0.2-0.2.pre4 (minor packaging fix)
   tivodecode-0.2-0.3.pre5 (another prerelease)
   tivodecode-0.2-1        (final release)
