Greg Ward 01a4694dce More tweaking to make this command act like other Distutils commands:
* added "--bdist-base" option to parameterize where we build
    the RPM (comes from "bdist" by default: "build/bdist.<plat>")
  * simplified/cleaned up some code in 'run()' in the process of
    removing (most) hard-coded directory names
  * if "--spec-only", drop spec file in "dist" rather than "redhat"
    (directory name still hard-coded, though)
  * use 'reinitialize_command()' to fetch the "sdist" object to
    tweak before running "sdist" command
  * use 'self.copy_file()' method rather than 'copy_file()' function
  * cosmetic tweaks to comments, error messages

README

This directory contains only a subset of the Distutils, specifically the
Python modules in the 'distutils' and 'distutils.command' packages.
Technically, this is all you need to distribute and install Python modules
using the Distutils.  Most people will want some documentation and other
help, though.  Currently, everything can be found at the Distutils web page:

    http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/

From there you can access the latest documentation, or download a standalone
Distutils release that includes all the code in this directory, plus
documentation, test scripts, examples, etc.

The Distutils documentation isn't yet part of the standard Python
documentation set, but will be soon.
