Of course, though my point is that you're specific about which distro you want
to be compatible with.
What you're after is to be able to use .spec files from Fedora and/or openSUSE
in MeeGo. Nothing wrong with that -- in fact, that's a worthy goal.
But your argument, as I understood it, was based on the fact of there being a
mythical cross-distro .spec that would work in all the major RPM-based distros
and therefore MeeGo should adhere to it.
