To me current behaviour as described above sounds strange, even irritating, but I'm not a packager and I don't even use the package, so I don't know enough.
@ Lev
I understand in Mandriva virtualenv the default settings can be used without having to unset a variable, and that that doesn't cause other problems.
Is that correct?
If so, and if no one cares to reply to this mail or in the bug report, I think you can just go ahead and change the default environment variable from
PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE to whatever Mandriva's default is. If that causes any new problems, we'll find out soon enough when the package is in cauldron ;)

Marja
