Created attachment 320719 [details] Use vanilla upstream's setup.py file on Fedora Description of problem: While looking at MySQL-python for a different issue I ran across the comment that we needed to use the MySQL-python-2.2.1 setup.py because Fedora and RHEL do not have setuptools. Fedora has setuptools so we can use upstream's setup.py file on Fedora. Attaching a patch against the spec in cvs that does that on Fedora. Note that the conditionals in the patch should allow the RHEL build to work without setuptools but I did not test a build there.
