I never wrote that ...
%{dist} can be defined in your .rpmmacros file, which you create in your
home directory on each separate build host. Then you add %{dist} at the
end of your 'Release:' line, and the .rpm files will end up with the
dist tag in the resulting filenames (suggest that you use %{?dist} so
that if the marco file is missing, you end up with no text added).
This advice has the ovious disadvantage that it presupposes that *everbody* has this definition in their .rpmmacros file - even that they have an .rpmmacros file at all. Most people don't. Most of the grown-up spec writers I know have some method of defining %dist in their spec files, too many to name.
