[Fedora-packaging] Python compiled files without .py in a name

Hi,

a project I am packaging contains a few python scripts that do not 
have .py in a name. I gather only files containing .py are bytecompiled 
during RPM building. And so if there is a file called "script" in the 
site-packages, it is bytecompiled once the file is used and "scriptc" is 
created. Then after uninstalling the package, "scriptc" is left on the 
filesystem.

What is the correct/proper way to handle such files? Or even, am I missing 
something?

Thanks,
Martin
