Hi all,
Some time ago there was a movement towards deprecating MANIFEST.in and
adding directory support to setup()'s 'data_files'. Is there actually
something against implementing directory globs in 'data_files'?
I'm a little bit lost among current 'sdist' and 'bdist_rpm' options
regarding directories. I'm searching for a solution for 'bdist_rpm'
errors like this one:
"can't copy 'lib/directory/*': doesn't exist or not a regular file".
Related part of the documentation, a mail list discussion, and a bug:
