[issue9322] bdist_rpm ext_modules absolute source path fail

[Dan OD]

New submission from Dan OD dj...@cam.ac.uk:

Setting absolute paths for C source code files in setup.py breaks bdist_rpm

ext_modules=[Extension('foo', [os.path.abspath('src/foo.c')])],

results in bdist_rpm not including src/foo.c in the RPM, however

ext_modules=[Extension('foo', ['src/foo.c'])],

works just fine.

[issue9322] bdist_rpm ext_modules absolute source path fail

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

Examples in the documentation only use relative paths, so in my opinion the bug 
here is the silent failure.

Do absolute paths work for sdist or other bdists?

I'm still ironing out the crinkles, but this has been working for

sdist
build (/install)
bdist_dumb

unfortunately I don't have access to a Windows machine to test the other two. A 
non-silent warning/error would keep me happy.
