Add required files to build rpm with bdist_rpm

[pndsagora]

Just include additional files to MANIFEST.in to be able to build rpm from git repo using

python setup.py bdist_rpm

@pndsagora Don't know if you considered it, but you can also download OpenFisca packages from PyPI, copy them to your server in a directory, and ask pip to install packages from a custom wheels directory (pip install --use-wheel).

Cf Wheels doc

Closing since a simpler solution was found by updating setuptools to v34 🙂

@tchabaud I don't fully understand your solution. I understood that you ended up building RPM packages after an upgrade of setuptools.

I did:

python setup.py compile_catalog
python setup.py bdist_rpm

I examined the content of the OpenFisca-Web-API RPM package and noticed that it only contains the source files of the web API.

May I ask you to tell me more about:

• how did you manage the dependencies between the 3 RPMs (Core, France and Web-API) and the other Python packages (numpy, etc.)?
• did you just copy the 3 RPM files to your server, then used rpm -i ... on them?

Thanks!

@cbenz It was a quick'n'dirty workaround for us, because the dependencies were already installed manually, so install 3 rpm with

rpm -i

worked for us.

OK @tchabaud thanks for your answer!
