New submission from Chris Withers <ch...@simplistix.co.uk>: With a simple setup.py:
from distutils.core import setup setup(name='packagename') And a MANIFEST.in containing: include buildout.cfg The result of a debug run of python setup.py sdist on Windows is: Distribution.parse_config_files(): options (after parsing config files): no commands known yet options (after parsing command line): option dict for 'sdist' command: {} running sdist Distribution.get_command_obj(): creating 'sdist' command object warning: sdist: missing required meta-data: version, url warning: sdist: missing meta-data: either (author and author_email) or (maintainer and maintainer_email) mus t be supplied checking if setup.py newer than MANIFEST warning: sdist: standard file not found: should have one of README, README.txt reading manifest template 'MANIFEST.in' include buildout.cfg include_pattern: applying regex r'^buildout\.cfg$' adding buildout.cfg Distribution.get_command_obj(): creating 'build' command object exclude_pattern: applying regex r'^build\.*' removing buildout.cfg ... The regex built is incorrect, although it is apparently correctly built on other platforms... ---------- assignee: tarek messages: 92511 nosy: cjw296, tarek priority: normal severity: normal stage: test needed status: open title: Impossible to include file in sdist that starts with 'build' on Win32 type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6884> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
