I used to get tripped up on this too
and I've been doing Linux since the RHL 4.0 days. In some cases it's
entirely unobvious (e.g,. python-imgcreate-*.rpm originates from livecd-tools-*.src.rpm).
Once you realize what's going on, you can usually see the connection,
but I suspect some/many a would-be-bug-reporters give up when they simply
cannot find the binary rpm listed in BZ.
Perhaps the mouse-over and click-through
help text of BZ's Component field could better explain this. It might
also be good to note how easy it is to grock the src.rpm name from a "suspect"
file using rpm -qif /some/suspect/filename.
