As the commit title suggests, this is an initial effort at making an RPM that can be included in Fedora or other RPM based distros.
This includes a scheme I originally borrowed from the Oz project that creates a version string based on the output of "git describe". This only works correctly if you have at least one annotated tag in your repo
and ideally should be used by annotating all major release tags like this:
git tag -m "0.4.2" 0.4.2
I have an annotated tag in my fork which may or may not carry forward with this pull request. If it doesn't you may need to create one using the scheme above in order for this code to work as expected.
If all is well, checkout followed by "make rpm" should produce some sensible RPM output.
