Hmm. I had purchased the RPM book quite some time ago, but have found no
source of info for rpm-3 features. afaict the program (or at least its
more recent features) has been undocumented for a while. But I haven't
looked recently...

Or, let's rephrase this in a positive way: Trond, where would be the
best places to look for these newer features? I recall looking at other
spec files to stumble across stuff that wasn't in the book.
