CheckSourcePatchPrefix (SourceX / PatchY prefixed with %{name}) eligibility
by Jan Pokorný
Hi review experts,
I think the check from $SUBJ does not make much sense nowadays
(perhaps it did in the past). At least I am unable to find
any clause about it in Fedora Packaging Guidelines.
If I am wrong, please make obvious what is meant with this check,
otherwise I would suggest dropping this check so as to avoid
confusion in the package review process [*].
[*] As an anecdotic reference, I found a review [1] where
the packager understood the check title as to literally use
"%{name}" macro as a prefix (something not exactly a subject
of the check, doesn't hurt, though).
