Yes, thanks.
I have read the HTML documentation, and it was a bit more clear.

I'm rewriting my projects, using a wrapper around pkg resource API that
will make sure to cast a distribution name string to a Requirement, in
order to get "distribution resources, aka non-package data files".
The main problem is that I can no longer use `package_data` setup
argument, but I have to use the `data_file` argument.
Since `data_file` is not very convenient, I have written this (draft)
function:

As an example:
data_files=find_data_files({
'': ['locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/*.mo'],
'/tmp/bin': ['tools/*']
}),
