Tarek Ziadé <ziade.ta...@gmail.com> added the comment: this fix was done to avoid generating broken MANIFEST file with sdist.
IIUC your problem is more about avoiding generating a MANIFEST file at *all* via sdist, so we should add a --no-manifest option to the sdist command. This can be added today in Mercurial setup.py file as well so you don't have the problem with 2.7. I can contribute this change if you want. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8688> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
