  1. This directory contains support file used to build RPM releases of
  2. Python. Its contents are maintained by Sean Reifschneider
  3. <jafo@tummy.com>.
  4. It is recommended that RPM builders use the python*.src.rpm file
  5. downloaded from the "ftp.python.org:/pub/python/<version>/rpms". These
  6. may be more up to date than the files included in the base Python
  7. release tar-file.
  8. If you wish to build RPMs from the base Python release tar-file, note
  9. that you will have to download the
  10. "doc/<version>/html-<version>.tar.bz2"
  11. file from python.org and place it into your "SOURCES" directory for
  12. the build to complete. This is the same directory that you place the
  13. Python-2.3.1 release tar-file in. You can then use the ".spec" file in
  14. this directory to build RPMs.
