I have a SuSE spec file that is pretty close to what's provided in the
source tarball.  I think I can get it to be backwards-compatible (I'm
guessing the original is for Red Hat distros) with various %if conditionals.
 I'd be happy to work as part of a team of spec maintainers to get "the one
spec to rule them all".  I don't have access to servers with other distros,
so I can only test on SuSE/SLES.

Cheers
Jeremy
