Hi

Has any one created Python RPM on AIX ?

I am using the spec file that comes with Python source file and here is the problems I was facing:

README file says download the bz2 version, but only gziped and xz version available from Python website
so had to convert the .tgz file to bz2 and copy it over to SOURCES directory.

%define config_binsuffix  was set to 2.6 and not sure why it should be 2.6 when I working on 3.4 version.
had to change it to to pass the error.
%define config_binsuffix none

Misc/cheatsheet seems to be decommissioned in new version of Python but still in spec file
so commented it.

The last error that I am receiving and can't figure the resolution is below:

Processing files: python-devel-3.4.2-AIX71
File not found by glob: /var/opt/freeware/tmp/python-3.4.2-root/usr/include/python3.4/*.h

running rpm -bl option to see missing files are below:

Any idea as how I can fix this ?
