Hmm. Yes. And I see another error in the source RPM as well. I'll update

As I look at this, it becomes obvious that I am going to have to
rearrange the repository tree to handle other RPM-based distributions.

Please do not do this! If you do, you will not get the update when I fix
the repository RPM!
