Correct, your package naming does not comply to the FPG.

You are misreading the FPB. Debian is irrelevant. Their naming is lower case
only and in general is entirely different from Fedora's.

> http://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/libraw-dev
Note: libraw-dev - Entirely different from Fedora.

Yes, I consider this to be a MUST FIX.

If you really want to support "libraw-*" you can add artificial Provides:.

But be warned: There are reasons why we use "the tarballs' name". You find
yourselves in trouble should some other project release "libraw" packages.
