Does not matter much, according to the log it's in /usr/lib64/python2.5/
site-packages/reportlab/fonts:

copying fonts/00readme.txt -> /home/fhimpe/python-reportlab/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-root/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/reportlab/fonts

Same location according to the log:
copying fonts/bitstream-vera-license.txt -> /home/fhimpe/python-reportlab/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-root/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/reportlab/fonts

To me something seems very wrong: the py and pyc files are installed in 
/usr/lib/python2.5 prefix, while other files are in /usr/lib64/python2.5
prefix. 

Two examples from the log:

byte-compiling /home/fhimpe/python-reportlab/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-root/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/reportlab/tools/__init__.py to __init__.pyc
                                                                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

copying docs/userguide/app_demos.py -> /home/fhimpe/python-reportlab/BUILDROOT/python-reportlab-root/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/reportlab/docs/userguide
                                                                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
