Are you serious ? May you quantify the space and the time lost ?

Is it ?
The error say "no modules named distutils", is the module an external
one that I need to have installed or is a bogus error due the previous
line: File "<string>", line 1, in ?
And most of all why when I wrote about the inability to create the RPM for
RH2.1 no one wrote: you need to install the distutils package, after
having seen this error:
checking Python installation directories... Traceback (innermost last): File "<string>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named distutils
Traceback (innermost last): File "<string>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named distutils
/usr/
checking how to link an embedded Python application... no
configure: error: Python Makefile not found
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.56347 (%build)
may be because the message after all is not concise.
