I would guess that he's using rpm because it's part of the INSTALL instructions,
which were written against Fedora.

1) Bootstrap, configure, make and make install
   # ./bootstrap.sh
   # rpm --eval "%configure" | sh
   # make
   # make install

This was just a nice way to get the default options for './configure'.

When I went to build fcoe-utils.git on Ubuntu I installed rpm (was surprised it
was a package) and then continued with the instructions. Everything went
well until I ran into the lib64 vs lib issue. I looked at the output of 

rpm --eval "%configure" | sh

on Ubuntu and the output seemed reasonable. I simply didn't have the time
to look into it at the time so I just symlinked around the problem.

There is probably a 'deb' way to get those default configure options, but I'd
have to spend some time looking into it.
