The libpci shared library is needed by cpupowerutils: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/11/105 which will probably replace cpufrequtils.

I dont know of any reason not to include the shared library. Debian and Gentoo build it, Slackware on the other hand does now.
This task depends upon

It seems that having both a shared and a static library isnt possible (or even needed?) with pciutils.
Im not sure what would switching to a shared one will involve.
