Rudd-O added the comment: ahaha! I have the patch that implements this functionality. 1) it renames the RPM package name to python-%packagename-py2.4 and and its requirements as well. 2) it autooptimizes (-O1) any RPM built if no optimization has been configured in setup.cfg, so it works with a

[issue5482] RFC: improve distutils bdist_rpm so it builds pure python modules as single packages that works across architectures

Rudd-O added the comment: apparently, /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages IS in the sys.path, which would seem to indicate that python would actually load pure python modules from there. Which means that the only fixes that need to go within distutils would be: 1. a fix so in 64bit arches, pure p
