I'm planning to collect all essential information for a OpenPKG .spec
file developer. Once it is available I'll post it here.

No, unfortunately until now we've no fixed set of values for those.

Exactly, and for internal use there is also "PRIV" (private) reserved.

For this there is the HISTORY document in the "openpkg" package
source tree. It lists all releases of "openpkg" together with a small
description what happended. We use this as our reference for "openpkg"
dependencies.

Hmmm... do they really need documentation? I mean, they can be listed
with "rpm -qpi" (for source and binary RPMs), or "rpm -qi" (for
installed packages) and unless there names are not too crazy I have
though they are more or less clear. But perhaps you're right and this
is only clear to me ;_) and not clear too the all. How should this
documentation look like?
