--- Comment #5 from Antti Järvinen <antti.jarvinen@xxxxxxxxxxx> ---
Just a quick question about this name change .. while I'm the upstream, it is
technically possible to rename the package. Now it seems to me that rpmbuild
wants to find sources inside tarball in directory named <packagename>-<version>
and if I change package name, the directory name inside tarball needs to change
too, right? If I want to use the tarball downloadable from github as source, I
need to re-name the sw (maybe project) in github also. Other linux
distributions make similar assumptions about naming of the directories and if I
now change the name, I very easily have a situation that I need to re-name the
package in other linux distributions too and now, this is not that easy thing
to do.

So, one option is to put releases for fedora in other location than github
release-tag, and have it packaged into tarball differently (different directory
name only I think) - or is there better suggestions, anyone?
