Why not merge package_files and package_patterns into one list. Then use glob.glob() to work this into a list of single filenames.
There's a potential problem here if I want to include the *.cfg files in the package/ directory but not in package/example/. Maybe that doesn't matter.
The downside with this proposal is that you'll have to add MANIFEST.in rules for these files as well...
The sdist.add_defaults() method automatically includes README{.txt}, setup.py, and any referenced *.py files in the manifest; clearly if we add additional patterns, add_defaults() should automatically include matching files in the manifest. --amk (www.amk.ca) ENOBARBUS: Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety. -- _Antony and Cleopatra_, II, ii
