nvidia-graphics rpm

I apologize if this is off-topic, but I thought it was relevant...
I'm in the midst of doing a bare-metal rebuild of my old Myth box, and
decided to use FC1 and Jarod's guide (nice work, Jarod). I found both
Jarod's guide & ATrpms very helpful, and was able to get 0.14 to a
runnable state pretty quickly.
However, I usually track CVS, so I checked out the latest and started
building (after uninstalling the 0.14 rpms, of course). After
resolving a couple of dependencies (needed to apt-get lirc-libs-devel &
lame-devel), my compilation started chugging away... until it got
linking in libXvMCNVIDIA. The nvidia-graphics4363 rpm installs
libXvMCNVIDIA as /usr/X11R6/lib/nvidia-graphics-1.0-4363/
libXvMCNVIDIA.so.1.0.4363. It does add the directory to /etc/
ld.so.conf, so it's available at runtime, but I had to manually add a
"-L" for that directory to settings.pro to get things to build.
I'm not sure if this is more of packaging issue or a settings.pro
issue... my gut says packaging. Axel, would it be possible to have the
nvidia-graphics RPM do a post-install step of creating a symlink in /
usr/X11R6/lib, or something like that?
