I have a Fedora Core 7 development server that has python2.3, python2.4 and python2.5 installed. I'd like to build rpm's of my application for each of these versions of python.
Python2.5 (/usr/bin/python, /usr/bin/python2, /usr/bin/python2.5) is the default version but the others are available from /usr/bin/python2.3 and /usr/local/bin/python2.4 (both /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin are in my $PATH).
I've tried the following:
python2.3 setup.py bdist_rpm --python python2.3 \ --release python2.3 --binary-only
python2.4 setup.py bdist_rpm --python python2.4 \ --release python2.4 --binary-only
python2.5 setup.py bdist_rpm --python python2.5 \ --release python2.5 --binary-only
All of the commands complete successfully, however, upon examining the generated dist/ rpm's for 2.3 and 2.4 I've noticed that the "site-packages" files are all relative the python2.5. That is, for the 2.3 rpm, there are files that contain the path "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/...".
How can I force the rpm's to include the proper site-packages path (for python2.3 that would be "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/")?
Thanks for any info,
Phil

You may want to consider reading Fedora's Python packaging guidelines[1].
