Note that %dist is defined in this rpm as
%dist .el5
which is commonly not what TUV uses for security errata.
An example of this is
xulrunner-1.9.2.22-1.el5_7.i386.rpm
In the above case "%dist .el5_7" was needed.
For those who are curious/confused, when upstream build a package
against the master branch for a major release (i.e. the one that will be
the next point release) the %dist tag is ".el5". When they build a
package from a maintenance branch for a given point release (e.g. for
security errata) the %dist tag is instead ".el5_X", where X is a
non-negative integer, because it builds against an older package set
than the master branch.
