Description of problem: Building pre-release python distutils packages with python setup.py bdist_rpm works, but the version number is "RPM-higher" than the official release package that is released later. This constitutes a problem because many of the components in major Python apps like Zope -- distributed as cheese shop eggs and downloadable via pip or buildout -- are pre-release packages which, when turned into RPMs, contain RPM-invalid version numbers. The RPMs build, but the pre-release packages are considered "newer" by yum, so you can imagine the havoc that breaks. How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. python setup.py bdist_rpm 2. inspect version / release number of resulting RPMs, find out it's wrong 3. do not profit! Actual results: distutils package version: 1.4a rpm package version: 1.4a Expected results: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Non-Numeric_Version_in_Release Additional info: patch attached. works against python 2.4, may apply fine to python 2.5 or 2.6 too since distutils hasn't undergone that big of a rewrite. Ojo: the patch has been tested with distutils AND setuptools. |

Heads up: The fix requires a patch (distributed with the python 2.4.x RPM in CentOS) to be applied first. I am attaching said patch so you can apply the fix. |

the newest svnversions patch is to handle the case of people who want to build svn checkouts (usually versionnumbered by dev or dev-rXXXYYZZ). it overrides the release to be zero so they never upgrade alpha, beta packages. |

This patch autodetects dependencies based on the earlier patch and egg metadata, if setuptools is importable. |

I am considering some changes in the auto-dependency part of the patch. Keep tuned. |

Please write your patches against the trunk. I'll start to look at them after Pycon. Regards |

With the new Mercurial repositories and adapted workflow, patches should apply to a clone of the 3.1 branch. If you could also remove outdated or superseded patches from this issue (or give their names if you can’t remove them), it would help reviewing. Thanks in advance. |
