Problem with the Rpm easyblock?

[verdurin]

I'm trying to update bcl-convert and we're seeing build failures on generoso.

After adding rpmrebuild as a builddep, I saw:

rpm: -bb: unknown option

and the build failed.

It works fine locally, where RPM is always available.

Looks like this is relevant, pypa/setuptools#1456 (comment)
