If you followed the advice above then both rpms will go to the same
name.  That is probably the problem you are seeing now.

Yep.

Please show the header lines from the spec file that are setting up
this definition.  I think the problem is there.

I think you are probably making things too complicated.  I personally
have never needed to make these types of changes and I thought that I
have done some pretty gnarly things with spec files.  Simple is
better.  I suggest that you step back and take a simpler pass at this.
What are you trying to do again?  (I personally did not see any of
this earlier mail exchange.)
