I need to create a customized Fedora live CD with Python applications on it. The live CD requires rpm's of the applications. (The issues are similar to a customized Ubuntu live CD but Ubuntu requires deb's.)
It seems that the distutils/setup.py functions that create rpms are broken. I get errors most of the time that I try to use them. The Python community seems to be focused on eggs, that are useful if individually installed but don't match the distribution formats of the Linux distros. Those distribution formats are what the distros use for their live CD's. Is there a way to convert eggs to rpm's? Can the distutils be fixed to reliably create rpm's? Is there some other way to install eggs on distro customized live CD's?
