Use 'include_package_data=True', and put the files under revision control.
If that doesn't work, you're not using revision control, or just
don't want to put them in revision control, you'll have to list the
directory in a MANIFEST.in file: see the distutils docs
("Distributing Python Modules") from python.org for the specific format.
