We build target binaries to different levels of tuning, there are
packages which run everywhere (noarch), there are binaries which are
optimised to a specific tune and there is machine specific output.
People can inject other levels of packages as well. Giving a hint of
the kind of thing a given rpm contains seems like a perfectly
reasonable thing for us to be doing.

If you come from the rpm world, yes it is slightly unusual but as the
document above says, it works fine. We're not "in-compliant", we're
just adapting rpm usage to the environment it is being used in.

So no, I don't think we should be taking a patch which would just
confuse things for what seems to be a cosmetic reason.

Can you perhaps convince your audit team this is a sensible usage given
how the project builds and uses the rpms?

Cheers,

Richard
