[Buildbot-devel] 0.7.10p1 setup command bdist_rpm broken

Tue Mar 31 16:46:29 UTC 2009

Just an FYI, this issue is for more than just buildbot ... I can run
bdist_rpm for other modules on F10 and get errors of unpackaged pyo
files. I think it's related to what bdist_rpm expects in it's
generated spec file and what the local rpm build creates via it's
scripts .... namely on F10 /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile

<snip>
# Generate normal (.pyc) byte-compiled files.
$python    -c 'import compileall;
compileall.compile_dir("'"$RPM_BUILD_ROOT"'", '"$depth"', "/", 1)' >
/dev/null

# Generate optimized (.pyo) byte-compiled files.
$python -O -c 'import compileall;
compileall.compile_dir("'"$RPM_BUILD_ROOT"'", '"$depth"', "/", 1)' >
/dev/null
</snip>

I think the real fix ends up being a fix to bdist_rpm to allow for
FILENAME.py* instead of FILENAME.py (though I could be wrong, wouldn't
be the first time :-P).
