I do not know if this applies to this case, but for long times any crypto related technology had different packages/RPMs/whatever for the US and the rest of the world. IIRC this was caused by the export limitations for crypto technologies of the USA on one hand and some usage patents for cryptotechnologies from some US companies. For that reasons many crypto related products had two different packages. Personally I think that even a third package must have existed, as there are US/international regulations not to allow certain high tech products being sold to some "bad" countries (like Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam, etc.). Given the fact, that US regulations are a bit looser now, and some usage patents have expired (Diffie Hellmann and RAS, 2000?), it is clear, that now some parts of the distribution are the same for the US and the rest of the world.
