Looks like the spec file does the (for Fedora anyway) right thing and
includes a dist tag on the release, aka:

Release:	1%{?dist}

which on Fedora 9 works out to be 1.fc9 unless you undefine the dist
macro.  I'm guessing the install script doesn't know about the dist
macro and isn't smart enough to automatically look for packages with
either the non-dist or dist specific release numbers.
