It doesn't really matter whether there is a way for a guru to figure out
which is which. It is *not acceptable* for different people to be
generating different RPMs and naming them the same. The confusion
factor for ordinary users will be impossible.

Devrim and Command Prompt need to work this out between themselves and
come up with distinct naming schemes. If they fail to resolve it, core
will have to issue a diktat.
