So, about the RPM rant...
When you people were telling me to go look at the spec files that you'd written for something else (which was helpful, in theory) or that I should really be using XYZ other Linux distribution (which was completely useless, so you can go get fucked again, still), what you really should have said was:
"Hey, dumbass! PHP5 includes a php5.spec file that does all of that shit. It's right there in the distribution source. So quit whining."
Because it is, and I'm using it right now.
I don't expect Apache (Solr) Lucene to cough up their own spec file (but find . -name \*.spec is officially part of my SOP now), but I also don't anticipate that it'll scatter binaries and, worse, shared objects hither and yon to the extent that PHP does. Which, you know, is probably wishful thinking, but don't burst my bubble just yet please.
