Just some feedback about the macros ... (naming convention; nothing 
about whether they should be in rpm.)

%pythonprefix - seems overkill; %{_prefix} will should cover well

%pythonversion - %pyver, %pybasever already exist ... would need 
harmonization throughout all specs.

%pythonpath - suggest %pythonhome as naming (a la $JAVA_HOME)

Can someone share with me when get_python_lib() != get_python_lib(1)? 
Inquiring minds want to know.  %pythondir, %pyexecdir, 
%python_sitearch, %python_sitelib, are pretty superfluous macros.

thanks,
