I'm trying to create Zope 2.7 RPMs for my SME Server distro (a Red Hat 7.3 variant designed for small businesses). I've installed from the source tarball, and chosen /opt/Zope-2.7 for the location, including the instance home. All runs cleanly when built from source. I therefore attempted to create an RPM, as my production server does not have compilers installed. I used Chris McDonough's 2.7.0-b1 spec file, amended for the directory structure noted above. However, I'm getting a failure after the build: changing mode of /var/tmp/Zope-2.7-root/opt/Zope-2.7/bin/decompilezpy.py to 755 running install_data [ -f /var/tmp/Zope-2.7-root/opt/Zope-2.7/bin/python ] || ln -sfn "/usr/local/bin/python2.3" /var/tmp/Zope-2.7-root/opt/Zope-2.7/bin/python Zope binaries installed successfully.

Can anyone shed any light on this?
