Comment:
The wheel PEP is now accepted, and pip will soon have support AFAIK.
Regardless, comment 5 is correct that we jump through way too many hoops
in our setup.py in order to try to trick distutils into handling
`data_files` as if they were `package_data`, and that is the root cause of
this bug. Instead we should just use `package_data` and solve the problem
properly.
I don't believe this is a 1.5 release blocker, though, so re-setting the
severity to Normal.
