Well, that doesn't change the original question in this thread, since if calling it gstreamer-editing-services that would _not_ be because of Fedora's %parent-%child naming guidelines and a gstreamer- prefix, but because one upstream name is the same and differs slightly from the tarball name. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-editing-services/ | index : gstreamer/gst-editing-services | GStreamer Editing Services http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gstreamer-editing-services/html/ch01.html | GStreamer Editing Services 1.1.90.1 Reference Manual https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#General_Naming | General Naming | | When naming a package you can take some cues from the name of the | upstream tarball, project name from which this software came, | and [...] That's a bit of an OR, some people prefer naming a package after the tarball name while others derive a package name from the name found on web pages or in documents.
