Understood. I still don't like the name, but I can live with it ;) I think there's too much stuff in there that has nothing to do with rpm-ness. And there's rpm-ness that is not necessarily specific to linux-ness (although for all practical purpose I doubt there will ever be a significant need to support rpm on a non-linux platform, so that's a minor quibble).
