Hi, I was working on the "boostrap-vz" package and noticed something really annoying when creating a "boostrap-vz-doc"[1] binary package with its Sphinx documentation: the actual Python files that composes the application weren't being packaged on the main "boostrap-vz" one. I had to add "usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/bootstrapvz/" to its "debian/boostrap-vz.install"[2] to fix this, but I feel this is wrong. Looking at other Python packages that have separate "-doc" packages, like "python-django", they don't seem to need this.
Also, its "*.egg-info/" folder also went missing, as we can see with "debdiff": Files in first .deb but not in second ------------------------------------- -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info/PKG-INFO -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info/dependency_links.txt -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info/entry_points.txt -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info/requires.txt -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info/top_level.txt This broke its entry point scripts (at least I finally find out the cause of the "pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound" error), so I had to either add custom ones[3] or add "usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-*.egg-info/" to its "debian/boostrap-vz.install" file as well. Any ideas on what I missed here? Regards, Tiago.
