I just took a quick look at the systemtap package. It has:
# On RHEL[45], /bin/mktemp comes from the 'mktemp' package. On newer
# distributions, /bin/mktemp comes from the 'coreutils' package. To
# avoid a specific RHEL[45] Requires, we'll do a file-based require.
Requires: /bin/mktemp
On RHEL5 the mktemp package only provides a /bin/mktemp and
no /usr/bin/mktemp. Now RHEL5 is fairly old and this Requires can be
changed for Fedora of course. But it might be that there are other
packages that share a spec file between RHEL and Fedora and have a
/bin
instead of /usr/bin Requires for this reason.
RHEL[45] is dead, so feel free to
drop this. Also polluting spec file
with conditionals (or any other things) for unsupported/unrelated
distros just create problems.
Cheers,
Mark
