Its a likely long term thing, there is not a clean way to access the hosts rpm

the way it is means you can only use it to build f-15 on f15 or f14 on f14
there is no way to use it and build a 15 image on a f14 host etc
This came up separately on the livecd list as well. Jesse suggested doing
what pungi does. Support $releasever but provide a --ver option to override
the version it uses.
