Mid-air collision! :-)

Fair enough, but I don't think its necessary to expose the unittests to all
end-users; to put in bluntly: they don't do anything useful[1]

Mine too, in this case. :-)

Yes, very good idea. But if you apply my proposed changes, no copying/renaming
is required, only a simple Readme.tests (or whatever) saying pretty much what I
said in the last paragraph of comment #10.

Yes. Btw, I also removed some unecessary %doc entries (maifest, setup.py, etc) -
these are required for application installation, which is RPM's job.


Jochen: By the way, are you reviewing this package? If so, please assign the bug
to yourself to avoid confusion (I noticed the flag when I was about to do
this... :-)  )


[1] except if you are debugging/developing, which normal users of the app won't
be doing ;-)
