In the distroname subroutine, there is code to translate distro names - is this really necessary?  Shouldn't this information come straight from the OS_Detect framework?

I left it that way because this affects all the subdirectories in all the packages (i.e,. changing it means renaming all the subdirectories). This is not really a Big Deal, but I just didn't want to go that far.

That being said, I agree that it would be nice if there were no translation, but then you end up with RH EL, ES, and WS all having different subdirectories when the RPMs are actually identical. Perhaps the proposed "clone" situation would be able to alleviate this...?
