Thank you for your reply!

The problem is, it worked without that, so users will report it as a bug
that they cannot install the new version.  Besides, all git related
tools are installed under $HOME/bin by default.

I guess the bdist_rpm target won't be used in StGIT for now.  A manually
created specfile will be used instead.  I'll appreciate if bdist_rpm is
fixed so that it can be used in the future.

Please note that I'm not asking for anything weird.  If it's already
possible to use a non-default prefix for the install target, it would be
natural to use a different prefix for the rpm packages.
