That was a change by Christian Rodriguez:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

- kill "la" files and static libraries 

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Apparently most .la files are not needed and have therefore been
deleted from most packages recently, including from fontconfig.

But on older distributions where .la files from other packages still
contain references to fontconfig, it may cause problems deleting them.
I have therefore reintroduced them for distributions <= openSUSE 11.0:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

- kill "la" files and static libraries *only* for versions >
  openSUSE 11.0.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I think the M17N repository already has the new packages now and you can
try to download fontconfig-devel again.
