     5 It is recommended that RPM builders use the python*.src.rpm file

     6 downloaded from the "ftp.python.org:/pub/python/<version>/rpms".  These

     7 may be more up to date than the files included in the base Python

     8 release tar-file.

    10 If you wish to build RPMs from the base Python release tar-file, note

    11 that you will have to download the

    12 "doc/<version>/html-<version>.tar.bz2"

    13 file from python.org and place it into your "SOURCES" directory for

    14 the build to complete.  This is the same directory that you place the

    15 Python-2.3.1 release tar-file in.  You can then use the ".spec" file in

    16 this directory to build RPMs.
