[python-uk] Packaging advice for ujson / rpm / RHEL5

Hi,

I need to build an RPM of ujson for RHEL5 targeting Python2.6. This
will be deployed on "front end" boxes that do not have a compiler
installed (hence I can't just pip install the damn thing).

All the RHEL5 machines have Python 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 installed with the
default being 2.4 (what you get from /usr/bin/python).

If I run setup in the root of the ujson project like this:

$ python2.6 setup.py bdist_rpm

I notice from the output from GCC that the script has the -fPIC flag
reference /usr/include/python2.4

:-(

Obviously, compilation is being done against the wrong version of Python.

Anyone know how to pass in or force the version to Python 2.6?

Many thanks,

Nicholas.
