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.
