IMO, include_package_data is an attractive nuisance. For newer projects, I just use package_data with a few globs.
It's all I've ever known :-S
Where are the docs for what I should use instead of the packages and incude_package_data parameters to setuptools's setup function and the find_packages function?
The packages function just takes a list of packages. I doubt that find_packages depends on subversion. It doesn't buy you much in any case, as the expected value is simply a list of the packages to include in the distribution. As far as package data, see: http://docs.python.org/distutils/setupscript.html#installing-package-data Jim -- Jim Fulton Zope Corporation
