Whatever the ideal situation (not using distutils at all would be a suggestion) bdist_wheel certainly has some simple bugs that make it less fun to use sometimes. On Wed, Apr 27, 2016 at 2:14 PM Alex Grönholm <alex.gronholm@nextday.fi> wrote:
Are you seriously saying that you want your bdists to include tests, documentation etc.? Most developers would not agree with you, including yours truly.

This isn't really a problem with what you're doing. Rather it's an issue with the toolchain and and open question whether or not wheels should conceptually be able to be produced from a checkout, or if they should only be produced from a sdist. Problems like this are why I advocate the Checkout -> sdist -> wheel being the only path, but others feel differently.
As a simple user, my feelings are that the command I used should have generated three equivalent distributions, but did not. That feels like a bug. :(
Let me rephrase my question: what command do I use to build the wheel from the sdist I just made? For bonus points: why can't setup do that for me?
