Not sure about the naming convention for this one.

compat- packages usually build without -devel packages and are there for runtime
rather than build-time compatibility with older apps. The only compat-*-devel
packages I can find in FC5 or FE5 are the wxGTK packages.

For build-time compatibility, a name like gtkhtml36 would seem more sensible,
but that could cause confusion with the main package being gtkhtml3 and hence
giving the appearance of being "older". However, this does meet the package
naming guidelines, which the compat- package doesn't.

Another thing: are the static libraries really needed?

Minor nit:
warning: File listed twice: /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-3.6.so.18
warning: File listed twice: /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-3.6.so.18.0.2
