Hi Chris and Adam,

Something that would be really cool would be to have one .spec file that
nearly works on both Fedora and Mandriva, with perhaps just a few changes
for each distro's peculiarities.

I've noticed that you cleaned up a lot of the redundant commands in your
version of the .spec file, Adam.  But before I incorporate your version
wholesale into mine, I'd like to aim for cross-platform RPM compatibility,
since I have to deal with that anyway.

Would you guys be interested in crafting one spec that works on both Fedora
and Mandriva?

- Chris
