Hi all,
it seems that distutils doesn't recognize '.zip' files as being part of
packages, so if I have the following structure,
twill/__init__.py
twill/pyparsing.zip
twill/mechanize.zip
twill/shell.py
twill/commands.py
then packages = ['twill',] doesn't install the .zip files.
Quixote has a simple solution that uses the cmdclass option to respecify
things for (in their case) *.ptl files, and it works fine for .zip
files.
I'm pretty sure .zip files should be considered as valid as .py files,
by default. Any thoughts?
cheers,
