Jima, are we talking about readability? Well, then we should exchange
names like orange-devel-0.3-5.cvs20051118.fc8.x86_64.rpm for "Orange
Development Package" and so on. Can you see how nice would they look on
a desktop? ;)
I wasn't dismissing your suggestion out of hand. (Sorry, I should have
been clearer.) I'd advocate for a different separator if possible, though
(_ maybe?). - is a bit heavily used, appearing in the %name (as many as 5
times!), and as a separator between %name, %version, and %release.
Occasionally, with numbers in %name, it can take a moment to tell where
%name ends and %version begins. :-)
Fortunately, the really unreadable RPM filenames I have an issue with
aren't in Fedora.
