[Distutils] Help - Does wininst ignore MANIFEST?

[Patrick K. O'Brien]

I just started using distutils, have run into a snag and could really use
some help. I'm able to create source distributions with no problem. But when
I try to create a windows installer version via:

C:\Code\PyCrust>python setup.py bdist --formats=wininst

I get a win32.exe file that does not contain my icon file or subdirectories,
whereas the .zip and .tar.gz files come out fine. Is this a known problem?
Or am I doing something wrong?

Here are my manifest files:

MANIFEST.in
-----------
include PyCrust.ico
recursive-include Data *.py *.txt
recursive-include Demos *.py *.txt
recursive-include Docs *.py *.txt

Produces this MANIFEST file:
----------------------------
PyCrust.ico
README.txt
setup.py
.\PyCrust.py
.\PyFilling.py
.\PyShell.py
.\__init__.py
.\crust.py
.\filling.py
.\interpreter.py
.\introspect.py
.\pseudo.py
.\shell.py
.\version.py
Data\PyCrustTutorial.py
Data\PythonTutorial.py
Demos\PyCrustAlaCarte.py
Demos\PyCrustMinimus.py
Docs\CHANGES.txt

Which is used by this setup.py:
-------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
"""Setup file for the distribution of PyCrust. PyCrust is a pure
Python distribution. Thanks to Andy Todd, who created the original
setup.py for PyCrust."""

      PyCrust is an interactive Python environment written in Python.
      PyCrust components can run standalone or be integrated into other
      development environments and/or other Python applications.

      PyCrust comes with an interactive Python shell (PyShell), an
      interactive namespace/object tree control (PyFilling) and an
      integrated, split-window combination of the two (PyCrust).

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm on Win98se with Python 2.1.1
and Cygwin (though I am running distutils from a dosbox, not the Cygwin
shell). Thanks.
