Not realy,

As for example .. some source packages have actually a README. And sometimes in there 
, there is a dep-list. Like have automake-1.4 

Now , the first thing I always do is  urpmi <SELECT_STUFF_FROM_README_> and paste it.

I can imagine people having trouble finding the correct name, while now cooker now has 
allready 1.4 / 1.6 / 1.7 

And to be honest .. I don't see why it the rpm itself should be renamed. My logic 
sence is telling me that a rpm should have the name of the app itself. If one bold 
user want to compile or rebuild something , s/he will have a hard time after all. 
Adding this naming to the list is not gonna help.

Peace
