I think you already reported this (or someone else on (free)nx lists),
as this has been fixed 6 weeks ago. Or is this another issue?

I didn't create this package this way, most probably it was part of
ATrpms before it appeared in any Fedora repos (first package in ATrpms
appeared 3 years ago, e.g. at F(8-2*3) ~= FC2 time, where there wasn't
even a Fedora Extras).
