I'm not sure, and I'm fine with both naming schemes. I have the impression (I
could be mistaken, though) that "compat-" indicates that an older version of
the software is being packaged, while the lack of it indicates that it's a
newer version?

Version suffix only:
====================
python3  (newer than the default python 2.x)
python26 (for RHEL; newer than stock Python)

compat- + version suffix:
=========================
compat-*gcc* -- older versions of the GCC compiler suite
compat-db* -- older Berkeley DB versions
compat-libstdc++
compat-readline5


but then again, as per
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Multiple_packages_with_the_same_base_name

older openssl versions are packaged without the compat- prefix. So I'll
probably rename this to just libgee06 -- could you review the package as is,
with the rename coming later, or should I rename now?
