[issue11417] distutils' bdist_rpm fails when running with PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE

[Thomas Wouters]

I couldn't really care less about bdist_rpm, I'm just reporting a bug in it when not writing .pyc files (through PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE.) I encountered it while making the testsuite do the right thing when not writing bytecode (see issue #11420.) To me, a perfectly acceptable "fix" would be for the bdist_rpm tests to be skipped when not writing bytecode.
