yes, but i was proposing to change the buildbot to allow such a package to be
built 4 times instead of 2, and not having srpm conflicts and so that a single
submission builds both at the same time.

</I>
that is true, but if it's put into like the .spec file, it's kind of "there".
and in revision control.
this looked usefull to me, but i can be wrong...
