What do you think the above bugzilla reference is for? Sadly Jeff has
already tagged this a WONTFIX. Too bad, as this setup with spec, source
and patch files separated by package is very convenient.

Guess we will have to work around packages that define "Version:" tags
for sub packages. Too bad :( .
