Description of problem: gcc is missing dist tag in release tag. Additional info: Index: gcc41.spec =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/dist/devel/gcc/gcc41.spec,v retrieving revision 1.150 diff -r1.150 gcc41.spec 28c28 < Release: %{gcc_release} --- > Release: %{gcc_release}%{?dist}
Since when is the dist tag mandatory? It has to my knowledge been always optional...
At least in extras it's mandatory and since core and extras will be merged, I believe it should be added to all packages in core as well.

Dist tag is most certainly not mandatory in Extras, nor will it be in the merged Core/Extras collection. Please get your facts straight before filing a bunch of invalid bugs.
Sorry, Jesse, but last time I included a package to extras I was ask to add the dist-tag, because it (is/)was mandatory. Maybe the reviewer got it wrong; Who knows... However. I don't believe it's INVALID to add those bug-reports. Dist-tag simply makes sense and it doesn't cost us anything, or hurts us in any way! At least to distinct for which release the package was build for, it makes *MUCH* sense! If *you* don't mind OK, but I would be happy if every package would have it!
