[SciPy-dev] bdist_rpm problems

[Stephen Walton]

I'm seeing a couple of problems with "setup.py bdist_rpm".  If this is 
still in progress, so be it, but here are the specific issues I'm hitting:

1. "setup.py config_fc --fcompiler=absoft bdist_rpm" in newcore still 
uses g77, even though "setup.py config_fc --fcompiler=absoft build" uses 
Absoft.

2.  With today's SVN checkout, newscipy's bdist_rpm command isn't 
working at all, with the output:

3. I *think*, although I cannot be sure, that both scipy_core and scipy 
are installing __svn_version__.py files in 
/usr/lib/python-x.y/site-packages/scipy.  I don't think this is 
intended, and means that, once bdist_rpm is working, one won't be able 
to install both without using --replacefiles.
