Of course, just as version cut-off moved to the disttags, you can have hierarchical buildtags, like <vendor>_<3rd party> build structures, leading to things like foo-1.2.3-4_5.rh9.ralf.src.rpm or foo-1.2.3-0_5.rh9.ralf.src.rpm, if the vendor does not yet offer foo in version 1.2.3. For packages not existing in FC and where it looks like it will take some time to get them in (or perhaps will by definition not ever make it), I suggest to not use hierarchical tags, as it is easier to ask the "man-inside" to use a higher build. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
