What exactly is this supposed to mean in the context of the "move checks and package init after build" commit?

> NAME, VERSION, RELEASE, (EPOCH) is needed for all sub packages and the source rpm for the build. The srpm also needs ARCH, OS and the BuildRequires.

Just tested, and rpmbuild will now merrily try to build something when Name, Version and Release aren't specified in the spec and fail in myriad of ways because so many things inside the build depend on them. Dynamically generated stuff may be fun but that is too far.
