My Google-Fu is waning.

Are there any specific MIME types that should be used for RPM, SRPM and
.spec files?  Any tools which even care?  Or should I be fine with
application/octet-stream for the former two and text/plain for the
third?

Given that .rpm is also used for audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin does anyone
know if any of the myriad variants of tools in the RPM ecosystem (and
its forking merging clashing competitors for which branch is the "real"
rpm/rpm4/rpm5/...) is bothered by this being used for serving a file to
it?

(Generally, I'd not expect a server for RPMs to also be serving audio,
 so it should be fine to just split the mime.types based on expected
 role, or hard-code an override in the web-server's native configs).

Thanks,
-Phil
