Description

We'd like to have RPM packages for PULP product(s). Starting with Fedora EPEL, or even Fedora would be nice.

Describe the solution you'd like
Since the software is shipped in PyPI already, we could start with pyp2spec <pypi_name> and increment.

Describe alternatives you've considered
We'll have to install it from PyPI, though RPMs are better for administrators running on RPM systems (metadata, security, dependency tracking, configuration, etc.)

Additional context
This is related to the Copr on Pulp initiative.

Research direction

Start by identifying the PULP package names published on PyPI and run the suggested pyp2spec <pypi_name> workflow. Compare the generated specifications with Fedora and Fedora EPEL requirements, including dependency metadata. Done means the relevant PULP package(s) build and are installable as RPMs with tracked dependencies.
