I know it's not a problem, but I think that a traceback that report a not exsisting directory it's not nice and could be misleading.

As stated by Daniel Macks replacing --prefix=%i with --root=%d seems to fix the issue. So I'd like to know your opinion about this. Do you think we can use the --root flag in the future release? Do you know any good reason because we have to prefer --prefix to --root?

Thanks,
    Andrea.

Andrea: I had a look at some python rpms, and most use --root. So, we should probably switch to --root with future releases of python packages. It won't affect anything at all, however, except the path that is printed when python raises an exception. I did some tests and there is no performance difference.
