Yes: convince the organization that creates your RPMs not to remove the .egg-info files that the distutils generates, specifically so that system-installed packages can be detected programmatically, without needing to understand every single distribution format in existence. Or, failing that, create an empty "PyXML-0.8.4-py2.5.egg-info" file alongside the top-level modules or packages that were installed by the RPM. :) _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
