quite a lot. Sometimes we need to know "which Fedora/EPEL version was
this NVR built for?". We figured we could parse the dist tag, which
is very efficient, but its presence needs to be guaranteed (if we
don't want to maintain a list of hardcoded exceptions and use some
different logic for those).
Sorry if this is a silly question, but for your use case, does it
matter than the disttag says what it was built against, not what
release it was shipped with? Because the dist tag only tells you the
former, since we don't always rebuild everything.
