I take it there is no interest in fixing this problem? Or is it simply too much hassle?? Arve On 7/10/07, Arve Knudsen <arve.knudsen@gmail.com> wrote:

Hello

As far as I can tell setuptools does not always regenerate the source manifest when MANIFEST.in changes, contrary to what the documentation says. That is, if I add a directive to exclude files with the .txt extension to MANIFEST.in (after having previously including them), and run the sdist command, such files are still included. I have to remove the .egg-info for things to work as expected. This must clearly be a bug?
