That could be half-automatic if they actually learned to package correctly:

[angenenr@shutdown ~]$rpm -qR VMware-server /bin/sh [angenenr@shutdown ~]$

Is it possible to package "correctly" for more than one flavor/version of a linux distribution (or even just across all the fedora/RHEL/Centos variations)?

Package for the Enterprise Distributions? There aren't that many of them.

Maybe, but 3.x is wildly different from 5.x, and it needs to run across all the fast-changing fedora versions too. My question is whether it's possible to package something like this such that yum would do the right thing regardless of the platform.
