Looks like a package mistake:

  http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/apitrace.git/plain/apitrace.spec

The contents of apitrace-libs are files below %{_libdir}/%{name}/ which
seem to be plugin libraries:

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=6776085
  
    /usr/lib64/apitrace/
        /usr/lib64/apitrace/scripts/*.py
    /usr/lib64/apitrace/wrappers/*.so
        
Plus, there's a circular dependency between apitrace <-> apitrace-libs,
so splitting off the subpackage is kind of strange. Nothing else depends
on the apitrace-libs package.
