It's better to look at the buildlogs if you want to make sure what 
happened. The buildlog includes all the information you require for your 
specific architecture: (including the subversion revision of the SPEC 
file)

/dar/packages/perl-Pod-Coverage/_buildlogs/perl-Pod-Coverage-0.17-1.1.fc3.rf.x86_64.log.gz

Normally the 1.2 was a release bump to accomodate the removal of the 
numerical disttag in the release. Something we've been doing since the 
release of FC5 but which is not limited to FC5.

Maybe it's better to build against subversion directly instead of using 
older SRPMs ?
