[Distutils] SOLVED: bdist_rpm and pre-release python packages / eggs (was: pre-release versioning problems with sdist, bdist_rpm , bdist_debian)

[Tarek Ziadé]

While this is a complex topic, there's no need to be rude or impolite

If the solutions were so obvious they would be applied for years.

Thanks.
