This isn't the LSB problem's.  It's either Red Hat's or SuSE's.

The LSB specification, which may specify a standard package format
(maybe just RPM for now), will say what the packages should look like,
and maybe specify how the installation tool works (again, maybe just
"rpm"), but I don't see how that applies to either core dumping
programs *or* today's distributions.
