Comment:

 From the FLTK developer roadmap:

     FLTK 1.1.x is the former stable development branch. It is no longer
 being maintained, and any bug fixes will be applied against FLTK 1.3.x.

     FLTK 1.2 is not available any longer. Please use the latest 1.1.x
 release for a stable release, or 1.3.x if you feel like sacrificing some
 stability for utf8 support and other new features.

     FLTK 1.3 is the current stable development branch based on FLTK
 1.1.10.

     FLTK 1.4 will add even more features to the FLTK 1 branch.

     FLTK 2.0 development is focused on a new C++ API.

     FLTK 3.0 combines the stability of FLTK 1.3 with a more modern API
 based on FLTK 2.0. It is currently in pre-alpha state.

 Based on this information, I'd recommend we:
  * rename fltk and fltk-devel to fltk1 and fltk1-devel, respectively
  * update ftlk1 to 1.3 branch
  * update fltk1-devel on 1.4 branch
  * create a new fltk2-devel based on 2.0
  * maybe create a new fltk3-devel based on 3.0
  * create new fltk replaced_by fltk1.
