I'm keenly aware of where that spec file comes from, since I saw how
it was developed. It did start out as something for Fedora, but SUSE
folks started actively contributing in 2012 and merging their
packaging into upstream, changing it from a Fedora-style package to a
SUSE-style one.

Today, Ceph packaging in OBS is fetched through a source service and
used pretty much verbatim from upstream. I imagine you do something
similar to bring it downstream, too.

I'm not begrudging them of it, mind you. But it's a lie to say that it
isn't an openSUSE-style spec file. It's nice to know that we're mostly
compatible these days...
