Generate at buildtime and use %ghost in %files (or if you're a pedantic at pushing the packages out faster, then use "touch" to generate dummy placeholders). Then generate in %post. Actually, Debian Python Policy states to byte compile in post. Probably for the reason you stated. How many packages have you adopted this policy? And, have you noticed a significant speed impact during install of the packages? The reason it hasn't been implemented here, is probably based on two reasons: 1. Disk space complaints. (FE likes to %ghost *.pyo) 2. Potential install slowness.
