I have a python application, it can run on Python >= 2.6 and it's architecture independant.
I need the rpm package of this application to be installed on Fedora 14 (python 2.7) and Centos 6.2 (python 2.6).
I currently use mock to build one rpm package for each "flavour" and it works well. I apparently can't install the Centos compiled rpm on Fedora.
It gives me this error message :
error: Failed dependencies:
    python(abi) = 2.6 is needed by myapp-0.9.el6.noarch
Here is the relevant part of my .spec file :
%{!?python_sitelib: %global python_sitelib %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib())")}
%{!?python_sitearch: %global python_sitearch %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print(get_python_lib(1))")}

Do I really have to use mock and build 2 rpms or is there another way to create a single generic 2.x rpm package ?
