That was the suggestion I had made as well, and is the best technical
solution indeed:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/SteeringCommittee/Voting#head-efb18a3ff4ed343c4a8aa17dc0a8466bab8c9024
"A possible implementation is to extend %{?dist} to include the
repotag. Since EPEL is targeting building software out of the former
Fedora Extras pool of software which at this point in time uses
%{?dist} in 2989 of 3049 (98%) it does indeed already have a disttag
everywhere but the epel-release package. So that seems the least
intrusive and fastest way to achieve this."
