Trying to create an RPM using the 'bdist_rpm' target to setup.py and it fails here:

Code:
byte-compiling /var/tmp/openerp-server-5.0.0_rc2-1-buildroot/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/openerp-server/sql_db.py to sql_db.pyc

RPM build errors:
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.15318 (%install)
error: command 'rpmbuild' failed with exit status 1

Apparently it cannot find the 'man' file to copy.

I checked the tarball and a file of this name is in there:
Code:
$ tar tzvf /tmp/openerp-server-5.0.0_rc2.tar.gz | grep 'openerp-server.1'
-rw-r--r-- stephane/stephane 2791 2008-11-05 05:51:40 openerp-server-5.0.0_rc2/man/openerp-server.1

Maybe the MANIFEST is not created correctly.
