Apologies!  I misread Comment 16 as the modified tarball still being in the
package.  I see now that it's been fixed.

About putting the defines for hash and compression algorithm in the spec file.
the issue there is that that causes the package to use those algorithms no
matter what the build is targeted at.  On Fedora and EPEL-6, we wouldn't want
this to occur as the newer hash is more secure and the newer compression is
much smaller.  The build system will do the right thing without the defines
when building from the vcs (as it will construct the srpm using the correct
defines for that target).

All packagers who build srpms on Fedora and target EL-5 need to be aware of
this issue anyway although they may not be aware of the fix.  So a comment may
be appropriate but is not strictly necessary... perhaps better documentation in
the wiki would make this better although where in the wiki it would be found is
an open question in my mind.
