Could this be easily fixed by adding macros to EL that would only run when
appropriate? Staying with your earlier example:
%post
%{?epel_update_gtk_icon_cache}

This can get messy when there are a lot of them, most in my experience with
at least end user apps, you rarely need them so the occasional:
%if 0%{?fedora}
Recommends: ...
%else
Requires: ...
%endif
does not hurt readability much.
WIth large libraries that are already complicated that's more difficult,
but in that case major updates are discouraged within a release and all but
banned in EL so there's not much need or advantage to keeping the specs in
sync.
Thanks
