As to your other problem, I haven't even attempted it as the distutils generated spec file isn't acceptable to Fedora packaging standards, therefor I just maintain a spec file in my upstream source and have a 'make srpm' target in my makefile to turn the sources into an srpm. I also have other makefile targets to call various distutils things and git things too. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
