I rolled a spec file for work that seems to work for both suse and redhat
based systems.  You can pick the spec out of
<http://rc.vintela.com/topics/openssh/downloads/linux-i386/vintela-openssh-4.2p1vrc1.9.1-8.src.rpm>

The %post script in that (perhaps dubiously) decides what script to install
after looking around for LSB support. But, it seems to work pretty well.
(You'll probably want to ditch the earlier stuff in the spec since it's 
pretty specific for linking against our product.)

Cheers,
