Awesome Paul!

These changes work brilliantly! If you would like dev. level access on
clipart, please email me offlist your ssh public key, gpg public key,
and email and I will get you fd.o access.

Thanks for these fixes. You are the packaging master...and now we have
RPM support! Soooo....the clipart_package now handles all of the
previous packages we generated and now *RPM* packages!!!

Cool!
