I'm sure Michael knows, but as the topic's come up, for anyone who's
unaware, you can find the source RPM name for any binary RPM just from
the 'rpm -qi' output:

[root at adam vms]# rpm -qi python-imgcreate
Name        : python-imgcreate
Epoch       : 1
Version     : 20.4
...
Source RPM  : livecd-tools-20.4-1.fc21.src.rpm
