Sure, real world example [1]. There's no Makefile in the root directory (and I
don't even plan to propose adding it as that's java project, so 'make srpm' is
sort of no-go).
We agreed with upstream on the (super-ugly btw.) directory structure under
packaging/rpm; I hope this is one day to be replaced by trivial:
packaging/rpm/generate-srpm.sh
packaging/rpm/spec.template

Accepted, though I thought that we could s/make srpm/any command/ right now to
avoid spending additional bucks later with the PRs. Likely, once the new build
method is added we'll maintain it forever so the bad decision is not completely
free of charge.
