Make spec file OS-version-specific
The subpackage "yum-plugin-post-transaction-action" from yum-utils appeared with RHEL6.
Now I have an heterogeneous infrastructure, and I needed this yum plugin for RHEL/Centos 5. So I made a spec file, built the RPM, tested it, it works. But I want to make sure no one builds it for RHEL6 or 7 on the packaging machine by mistake one day, and overriding the vendor-provided one.
I have first thought to look for RPM specific tags like excludeOS but they're too wide. We are using mock, but I didn't find a way to configure it for this purpose.
All I did for now is to make the built RPM depend on centos-release-5 which seems very dirty and doesn't prevent build, only install...

That might be a problem since I'm building everything using mock from a CentOS 7 system, but that may be the only solution =/
