Hi all. I've posted this question to the sqlobject list, as sqlobject has moved to an easy-setup intallation to include formencode (also egg-ified) and take advantage of setuptools. I'm trying to build Fedora rpms for sqlobect as I have been doing lately, using the "usual" python templates, but I see no way to achieve it since the setuptools change, pardon my ignorance, and I've tried really hard. I attach the 2 self-made spec files I use, that used to build as a non-root user just executing: $ rpmbuild -ba python-sqlobject.spec Now I get these errors: ---8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<--- Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 47, in ? extras_require={ File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PIL/__init__.py", line 51, in setup File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/core.py", line 149, in setup dist.run_commands() File "/home/pau/LnxZip/RPM/BUILD/SQLObject-0.6.1/setuptools-0.5a13-py2.3.egg/setuptools/dist.py", line 417, in run_commands File "/home/pau/LnxZip/RPM/BUILD/SQLObject-0.6.1/setuptools-0.5a13-py2.3.egg/setuptools/dist.py", line 426, in install_eggs File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/dist.py", line 927, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "/home/pau/LnxZip/RPM/BUILD/SQLObject-0.6.1/setuptools-0.5a13-py2.3.egg/setuptools/command/bdist_egg.py", line 173, in run File "/home/pau/LnxZip/RPM/BUILD/SQLObject-0.6.1/setuptools-0.5a13-py2.3.egg/setuptools/command/bdist_egg.py", line 161, in call_command File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/cmd.py", line 333, in run_command self.distribution.run_command(command) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/dist.py", line 927, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/command/install_lib.py", line 92, in run self.byte_compile(outfiles) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/command/install_lib.py", line 128, in byte_compile dry_run=self.dry_run) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/distutils/util.py", line 434, in byte_compile raise ValueError, \ ValueError: invalid prefix: filename 'build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/sqlobject/boundattributes.py' doesn't start with '/home/pau/LnxZip/tmp/python-sqlobject-0.6.1-94.pau-root-pau' error: Bad exit status from /home/pau/LnxZip/tmp/rpm-tmp.54280 (%install) ---8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<--- What I want is a way to distribute an rpm, no need to be able o hae multiple versions. I can make and require the needed RPMS, like formecode Can anybody enlighten me on how to do it? I'll really appreciate it as I want to upgrade and contribute, if possible.

It allows you to translate RDBMS table rows into Python objects, and manipulate those objects to transparently manipulate the database. In using SQLObject, you will create a class definition that will describe how the object translates to the database table. SQLObject will produce the code to access the database, and update the database with your changes. The generated interface looks similar to any other interface, and callers need not be aware of the database backend. %prep %setup -n %{origname}-%{version} -q %build CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" %{__python} setup.py build %install rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT %{__python} setup.py install -O1 --skip-build --root $RPM_BUILD_ROOT --record=INSTALLED_FILES.tmp # Ghost optimized sed 's/\(.*\.pyo\)/%ghost \1/' < INSTALLED_FILES.tmp > INSTALLED_FILES find $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{python_sitearch} -type d \ | sed "s|^$RPM_BUILD_ROOT|%dir |" >> INSTALLED_FILES %clean rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT %files -f INSTALLED_FILES %defattr(-,root,root,-) %doc README.txt docs/* %changelog * Mon Aug 29 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-94.pau - latest CVS - require FormEncode * Mon Jul 4 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-93.pau - latest CVS * Wed Jun 1 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-92.pau - latest CVS with SingleJoin - update spec file * Wed May 25 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-91.pau - modify installed files to fix x86_64 version * Tue May 24 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-91 - svn version - try to update to MySQL-python-1.2.0 to access mysql-4.1 * Wed Apr 24 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-90 - svn version * Wed Apr 20 2005 Pau Aliagas <pau@newtral.org> 0.6.1-1 - new version * Wed Sep 22 2004 Jeff Pitman <symbiont+pyvault@berlios.de> 0.6-1 - new version * Tue Sep 07 2004 Jeff Pitman <symbiont+pyvault@berlios.de> 0.5.2-1 - new version # TemplateVer: 0.4 %{?!python:%define python python} %{?!pybasever:%{expand:%%define pybasever %(%{__python} -c "import sys ; print sys.version[:3]")}} %{!?python_sitearch: %define python_sitearch %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib(1)")} %{!?python_sitelib: %define python_sitelib %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib()")} %define origname FormEncode Name: %{python}-formencode Version: 0.2.2 Release: 2088.1 Summary: HTML form validation, generation, and convertion package Group: Development/Libraries License: Python Software Foundation License URL: http://formencode.org/ Source0: %{origname}-%{version}.tar.bz2 BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n) BuildArch: noarch BuildRequires: %{python}-devel Requires: python-abi = %{pybasever} %description FormEncode performs look-before-you-leap validation.
