Hi,

Recently I was updating my python package in rawhide to be compatible
with Python Eggs and from an error in a log it seems that
%{python_sitelib} is not declared.
Is it really required to define that variable at the beginning of every
SPEC file (eventually use %{_libdir}/python*/site-packages/) or it
should be already defined in the system?

Sample log:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=351446&name=build.log

Regards
Marcin

Python specs should have one of either python_sitelib or
python_sitearch defined at the top of them. See the guidelines for
python packages. Use of one or the other depends on if your module is
arch specific (compiled) or not.

You have to define it in the spec,

Thanks for both your answers. I looked only at Python Eggs guide and
missed info in common Python hints.
