Offhand, I can't think of any examples that produce multiple RPMS, but in general, it doesn't _know_ anything. What goes in what rpm is either 1) Automated using python setup.py install -O1 --root $RPM_BUILD_ROOT --prefix %{_prefix} --record=%{name}.files or 2) Manually listing the files that go into a package. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
