Could you share the ticket with us if you already created one? I am
asking since there is %{load:<path>} macro in RPM [1] for some while
already and instead of creating the macros.dist on the fly [2], it would
be probably better to have it as a source, where the %dist tag is
defined and just %load it into the fedora-release.spec.
