18 I knew that I forgot to mention something :)

20 This behaviour is expected. The reason that all build stuffs go into a
21 directory named for rel_type rather than profile is a fix for stackable
22 profiles.
23
24 Say that I have a stackable profile specified as "profile:
25 default-linux/x86/2004.0" in my spec file. If the old catalyst storage
26 naming convention was used (/var/tmp/catalyst/builds/$target_profile),
27 my stackable profile (whose value is in target_profile) would muck the
28 entire situation up by redoing the naming scheme to
29 /var/tmp/catalyst/builds/default-linux/x86/2004.0/.
30
31 The behaviour is the same (one top-level profile-specific directory),
32 but the naming a touch different.
