I try to package mercurial-keyring. However, if I build the binary package and then try to build the source package, this process fails because SOURCES.txt has been modified by the binary package build.

Apparently, dh_python2 (setuptools) creates an entry in SOURCES.txt for setup.cfg. This entry is missing from the upstream packages SOURCES.txt.

Strange enough, on my ubuntu 12.04 box, running 'python setup.py sdist' does not add setup.cfg to SOURCES.txt. If an explicit 'python setup.py egg_info' is executed, this will add the missing entry.

What is the proposed solution here? Patch SOURCES.txt? Nag upstream to update to a newer setuptools-package?

Thanks!
Christoph
