Yes, Debian does have this policy. I don't think it applies to RHEL or
CentOS though; besides if package maintainers want, they can always
replace the spec with their own. Mike -- your thoughts?

I just find it complicated to have to manually merge the spec from RHEL
with my own local git checkout, just to build reasonably up to date tgt
packages.
