After first getting "bitten" in RPM 4.4.9 by the fact that
${prefix}/var/spool/repackage wasn't created by the install,
but was still *mandatory* for the default package erasure
to work (since %_repackage_all_erasures defaults to 1 now);

When upgrading to RPM 5.0 CVS I now find that it has been
moved to the development directory (%{_topdir}) instead...
Although I do agree that hardcoding /var/spool/repackage
is bad, I had placed %{_topdir} in the developer category.


Should "rpm" really be using such "rpmbuild" directories ?
Wouldn't it be better to keep it under /var rather than TR ?
Though it would be nice if "make install" also created it.
(I added a mkdir for it, just as the rpm.spec seems to do)
