I am really looking forward to the implementation of this
PEP and I am glad that it is close to acceptance. One
thing that is not really clear to me is how module-only
packages are handled. Say I have a package "foo" that
installs the file "foo.py" to site-packages, where would I
install "foo.pyi" and py.typed to? Or is this case not
supported and I have to convert the foo module into a
package containing just __init__.py?<span class="m_6558374931146833120HOEnZb"></span><br>

<div class="gmail_extra">Good call. I think that conversion to a
package is indeed the best approach -- it doesn't seem worth
it to add more special-casing for this scenario.</div>

<div class="gmail_extra">Ethan, if you agree, you should just
add a sentence about this to the PEP.<br clear="all">

This seems like the best solution, especially since setuptools does
not really support installing package data for pure modules.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
