distutils bdist_rpm has long been broken for recent
versions of RPM (RedHat 9, Fedora Core 1 and 2)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88616
 
When an RPM contains an executable or shared library, a
"-debuginfo" rpm is generated.  For instance, the
following two packages would be generated:
    foo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm
    foo-debuginfo-1.0.0.1-i386.rpm
 
When distutils is faced with this problem, it prints an
error like
    AssertionError: unexpected number of RPM files
found:
['build/bdist.linux-i686/rpm/RPMS/i386/foo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm',
build/bdist.linux-i686/rpm/RPMS/i386/foo-debuginfo-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm']

The bugzilla bug contains a proposed patch, but
redhat/fedora developers chose not to accept it for
their own build of Python.
