Description

Setuptools supports changing the target installation environment when building an RPM (setup.py bdist_rpm) with the --python or --fix-python options. These have the effect of changing the path to the python executable to invoke in the generated .spec file.

However, Django's setup.py specifies a custom installation script in scripts/rpm-install.sh, which always invokes python directly:

...
# This is what dist.py normally does.
python setup.py install --root=${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} --record="INSTALLED_FILES"
...

As a result, it's impossible to generate a Django install to target non-default environments.

Not 1.1 material at this point.

This can be worked around by manually specifying the correct path in scripts/rpm-install.sh before running setup.py.
