AFAIK this is a limitation of the buildsys but not of rpm itself.

I know, hence my suggestion: SRPM is "wicd" and builds into
- wicd-pm-utils (base-package, arch)
- wicd-common (noarch, the name wicd-common was chosen to indicate it is not
standalone and because it must not be "wicd" to not become the base-package)
- wicd-curses (noarch)
- wicd-gtk (noarch)
- wicd-gtk will get a "Provides: %{name} = %{version}" so that "yum install
wicd" works.
