+On some platforms, brp-compress zips man pages without distutils knowing about
+it. This results in an error when building an rpm for nose. The rpm build will
+report either that an unpackaged file was found, or that an expected package
+file was not found.
+
+If you see such an error when using the bdist_rpm command, uncomment the
+'install_script' line in the '[bdist_rpm]' section of nose's setup.cfg
+file. This should fix the problem by fixing the man page filename in the
+generated rpm spec file. \ No newline at end of file
