The file scotty-2.1.7-2.src.rpm is actually:
1) whole, generic scotty 2.1.7 distribution scotty-2.1.7.tar.gz
2) tag file in RedHat rpm format
3) patch level 2 for RedHat 5.0:

Maybe I don't understand something, but you've got scotty
2 times. One from original location and another from redhat.
Was there any difference between them??? (other than src.rpm
came bundled with patch)???
