+&gt;<i> Because that would 1) requires a patch to rpm that we do not have or
+</I>&gt;<i> 2) patch all python packages to had %ghost on all *.pyc, &#160;and do a compilation of
+</I>&gt;<i> *pyc ( the 2nd part is easy, the first one is slightly harder to automate )
+</I>&gt;<i> 3) do not care about file tracking, but that's unclean.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Do not get me wrong, I think that's the way forward, but that's not applicable
+</I>&gt;<i> in a few days.
+</I>of course
+
+Can we forget for a little Mandriva and talk about Mageia ?
+I mean, we are before the alpha stage, so it's time to think about
+what the future can be
+did you read the OpenSuse policy ?

+
+of course the best solution would be be to put into the rpm only *.py,
+bitcompilling them at install and trac *.pyc and *.pyo as %ghost
+
+but it seems that neither Fedora, neither OpenSuse have problem to
+package bitcompiled files
+(the %fdupes OpenSuse solution seems not bad)
+
+or can we patch distutils/command/install.py even more than OpenSuse

+did, to generate a rpm-compatible format that would manage %ghost ?
