I don't see how that would work. Reasonably, the VCS is a fallback of nothing is declared in setup.py. I don't see why you should be forced to explicitly declare every file in the setup.py, a sensible default is not a problem. > For sure. But that means there will be still more than one way to do it Not really. There is one way to specify which files are included. If it is not specified, distutils would make the reasonable assumption that all versioned files should be included. -- Lennart Regebro: Pythonista, Barista, Notsotrista. http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
