Hello, I have trouble installing a data directory which is not a child of my package directory in the source directory.
My source directory looks like this: ./setup.py schemas/*.xsd foo/*.py And when it's installed, it should look like: site-packages/foo/*.py site-packages/foo/schemas/*.xsd In other words, schemas, from being a sibling of foo, became a child of foo. Now, how is this expressed in the setup.py? I tried this: setup( name="Foo", packages=["foo"], package_data={ "foo": ["../schemas/*.xsd"] }, package_dir={ "foo": "foo"}, [...] but it resulted in schemas being a package, not child of foo(!). I've read the relevant page in the reference manual, http://www.python.org/doc/current/dist/node11.html but I can't find the trick. Any ideas?
