Well remember, while I talked about rpms, I was really asking about a
policy for any type of distribution. The problem(/advantage) with rpms,
is that you can't configure them after they are made, so it forces you
into choosing a policy of how to configure your package. I could just
make the policy for rpms, but I wanted to be consistant for all dists.

I'd say no in pretty much all cases, unless you had different names for
different distributions (i.e. gnustep-base-main (backend/platform
independant files), gnustep-base-xgps (backend/platform dependant
files)). But that's a question independant of flat/deep structure.
For the flat/deep question, I think I'll stick with a deep structure and
perhaps provide a post-install script which could convert it to flat.
