Looks like this is more common than it seemed. I can try to compile on

the necessary commands, I could also set up a Fedora VM and provide a 
proper RPM package.

I'll add the OS to the generated folder names, I didn't think of this 
case when defining the format of those and wanted to keep them as short 
as possible.

There is an enhancement request for this, but it hasn't been 
implemented, yet. What is there, though, is the --force switch for 
forcing a rebuild.
