Installing a package sometimes builds UNKNOWN

[itkovian]

• using 0.10.6
• no package name in setup.py
• builds UNKNOWN-xxx package

See for example installing vsc-accountpage-clients version 0.7.2

[JensTimmerman]

can you please give a bit more information, e.g. the build log?

[JensTimmerman]

since this works for me
INFO: moving build/bdist.linux-x86_64/rpm/SRPMS/vsc-accountpage-clients-0.7.2-1.src.rpm -> dist
INFO: moving build/bdist.linux-x86_64/rpm/RPMS/noarch/vsc-accountpage-clients-0.7.2-1.noarch.rpm -> dist

possibly your upstream repo is wrong? do the test pass when you run python setup.py test?

[JensTimmerman]

especially, check for this in your build log
