[PyKDE] ANNOUNCE: SIP v2.4pre2

[John Ross Hunt]

I put the following at the top of my PyQt.spec to determine python's version
on the fly:

%{expand: %%define pyver %(python -c 'import sys; print sys.version' |
cut -c -3)}

And replaced every instance of:

%attr(-,root,root) /usr/lib/python2.0/site-packages/...

with

%attr(-,root,root) /usr/lib/python%{pyver}/site-packages/...

I'm using RPM 3.0.5, but it should work with any RPM 3.x and higher.

Enjoy,
