I'd like to try to keep this productive, but I think the FUD here needs to be addressed. RPM convention is to have the package name (i.e., the RPM name) match the upstream package name (i.e., the tarball name), so that is the convention we follow. Distributions which violate that standard are incorrect and will obviously require spec file changes. I'll admit that I haven't done a build run recently, so there may be some spec file drift in current CVS. I will resolve that very soon. Obviously packages which use *.spec instead of *.spec.in are more prone to this drift. That said, I just tested eet, and both of the following worked fine and build both source and binary packages: $ ./autogen.sh && make dist && mzbuild $ ./autogen.sh && make dist && rpmbuild -ta eet*.tar.gz So yes, they are exactly intended to work with E CVS as shown above. They follow standard RPM best practices and conventions and work with standard tools (i.e., rpmbuild) as well as supplemental toolkits such as Mezzanine and pkgbuilder.
