[Also sent to the bugs address.]
One can build an RPM directly from a tarball with a command like "rpmbuild
--rebuild packagename.tar.gz". This requires that there be a single spec
file in the tarball. For BT, this can be accomplished by running "python
setup.py bdist_rpm --spec-only" before running "python setup.py sdist". But
I'm not sure how to have a manifest for the tarball that includes the spec
file created by bdist_rpm and one without the spec file for bdist_rpm.
The email address in the spec file gets an extra set of angle brackets
applied by bdist_rpm, so no angle brackets should be included in
author_email in setup.py. setup.py should supply a one-line summary
attribute and a paragraph-long description attribute.
