Dunno what your problem is, but certainly I'm not confused by "two
separate uses of similar terms".

That is what I referred to. Look at what I quoted, particularly if you've
forgotten already what you've written. Not only did I quote the right
sentences, I explicitly wrote "neat shortcut" in double-quotes in my
reply, which is the term you've used. I did *not* refer to your later
reply where you commented on the %SOURCERPM query as "nice shortcut".

This thread is about "Determining the component for a bug submission",
and when skimming over new message, for a moment I thought maybe recent
development in RPM added a shortcut for querying the src.rpm name. Else
I would have skipped the entire thread, because I know these queries.

What confused me is the strange 1st half of your reply to Jerry, who had
pointed out that your query using `which ...` is insufficient, since we
need the src.rpm.
So, actually, you were just excited about the `which ...` part, because
you called it "Neat shortcut" (see archives! msg 01117), although it is
incompatible with the file locations from the start of the thread. And
then Jerry told you about the proper src.rpm query (which would benefit
from getting a _real_ shortcut in future RPM releases).

And I refer to the different query you called "neat shortcut".

In hope that you won't add any more confusion now. :)
