I've got a python extension that comes with its own standard autoconf/ automake system, and I can "python setup.py build" just fine with it as long as I have previously done "./configure" in that directory.
However, 'python setup.py bdist_rpm' can't hope to have done './ configure' first, as it untars and tries to build the extension there. Is there a hook for bdist_rpm (and friends) that will allow me to insert a './configure' in the build process, sometime before it tries to build the extension?
