[BioPython] care for an rpm spec file?

[Guido Draheim]

attached is an rpm spec file to build biopython 1.21,
it has builddependencies setup for mandrake 9.1. The
chatter about "Martel" and "Reportlab" is disabled
with patching setup.py - sadly, that seems necessary.

btw, please fix that annoying martel install bug.
While running setup, a missing "Martel" dependency
is claimed - and the default is "NO", do not continue
with installation, i.e. a missing required dependency.

As a search through the mailinglist shows, this is
simply wrong - however an innocent user will not know
this since the "installation help" does not have a
hint about a Martel installation dependency.

Please add a paragraph on
http://biopython.org/docs/install/Installation.html
in section 3 - tell about what "Martel" is and that
it is okay to continue. Otherwise, we should follow
the setup.py recommendation, and do _not_ continue.
