There are only two differences between this and the trivial one-file
distribution presented in section :ref:`distutils-simple-example`: more
-metadata, and the specification of pure Python modules by package, rather than
-by module. This is important since the Distutils consist of a couple of dozen
+metadata and the specification of pure Python modules by package rather than

modules split into (so far) two packages; an explicit list of every module
would be tedious to generate and difficult to maintain. For more information
on the additional metadata, see section :ref:`metadata`.
