issue with make dist/cvs commit

[Patrice Dumas]

Hi,

I am hit by something that looks like a bug(?) of the tag/build system. 
Here is what I did (for pam_ssh)

First there was no %{?dist} in the spec file. I did

  cd devel
  make tag 
  make plague

Then I wanted to request a build in FC-4. So

  cd FC-4
  make tag
 -> it complains that the tag must be unique

So I add the tag. I don't commit. Still in FC-4 I do

  make tag
-> error about the fact that I didn't commit.

So I commmit. No problem. Then I try to make the build

  make plague
-> pam_ssh.spec not tagged with tag pam_ssh-1_91-8_fc4

If I try to re-tag,I get 

  make tag
ERROR: Tag pam_ssh-1_91-8_fc4 has been already created.



So it seems that when I did "make tag" without commiting prior the tag was
created even though there was an error.


I see a possibility to overcome that issue: bump the release number. But I
wanted to report it anyway.
