Hello everyone:

I'm attempting to use the bdist_rpm flag to build a plain vanilla, Python 2.7 RPM for RHEL 5 x86_64, but the build command fails.  Since you all are the distutils experts I figured you might have seen this before.  I also submitted a bug to bugs.python.org:

http://bugs.python.org/issue17553?

Anyone have some pointers on how to make this build work?

thanks

Sean
