[Distutils] RPMs should include Python version in filename

[M.-A. Lemburg]

The subject says it all... I think that it would be a good
idea to add the Python version in the RPM filename much 
like bdist_wininst does this for Windows, e.g.

	my-package-1.2.3-1-py1.5.i386.rpm
	my-package-1.2.3-1-py2.0.i386.rpm
	my-package-1.2.3-1-py2.1.i386.rpm

The reason is simple: the Python API has changed between
versions and also the path used by the files inside the
packages use the major.minor version number.

The same problem most probably also occurrs for bdist_dumb
archives and most other binary distribution formats.

Thoughts ?
