I've been looking at the spec file that 'bdist_rpm' generates and I do not
see a %config or %config(noreplace) section. Is there a way to generate a
%config section and specify a list of files? This is important so that
config files do not get overwritten when using 'rpm -U'.
Looking at the code, I don't see such option,
please fill a feature request in http://bugs.python.org/ selecting
'Distutils' as a component,
(with a sample of such a spec file if possible)
Thanks

Ok, I found a way to use %config like this:
In setup.cfg define a line:
install_script=install.txt
In the file 'install.txt' I put this:
---------------------------------------------------
CONFIGFILES="\
%config(noreplace) /etc/myconfigfile.cfg"
echo "$CONFIGFILES" | cat INSTALLED_FILES - > INSTALLED_FILES.new
mv INSTALLED_FILES.new INSTALLED_FILES
---------------------------------------------------
Make sure your config file is added to the filelist fed to 'setup()' by
setup.py
And this works.
