RPM is the package format in LSB but does LSB force any naming standard for RPMs similarly to this:

Thank you in advance

+2  A: 

In the relevant section of the "LSB Book", Packaging, it's only required

  • to prefix your package with lsb-
  • to register the portion of your package name up to the first hyphen in LANANA (or for it to be your domain name).

However, the standard LSB packaging tool wrapper, makelsbpkg, is said to generate package names in the form mypackage-1.0.0-1.%arch.rpm, which, I guess is the name-version-release.architecture.rpm scheme you linked to.

(I think, it's intended that package name (mypackange in the example above, already contains lsb- prefix. I'm not sure, never actually ran the tool.)
