FWIW it would be nice to have the packname (or the spec name for that matter) 
earlier, as soon as possible. If we had that all those extra lines would go 
away. I tried to play a bit with it but failed.

Then the code could be reduced to:

    dirname = Popen(["rpm", "-E", '%' + tag], stdout=PIPE).stdout.read()[:-1]
    return dirname.replace("%{name}", self.packname).replace("%name", 
self.packname)

(Yes, I am abusing code brevity, but you get an idea). :-)
