On the subject of tags now that we're merged, shouldn't all references
to "fc" ("Fedora Core") be replaced with "f" ("Fedora"), i.e.
dist-fc7 -> dist-f7
dist-fc8 -> dist-f8
and all new NVR for packages in f7 and later be of the form:
foobar-1.2-3.f7
rather than:
foobar-1.2-3.fc7
etc? It seems a little odd to be carrying forward the "fc" when
Fedora Core will cease to exist as of F7.
