Comment (by timo):
With `packages=['polls']`:
{{{
sudo python django-polls-0.1/setup.py install
running install
Checking .pth file support in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/
/usr/bin/python -E -c pass
TEST PASSED: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ appears to support
.pth files
running bdist_egg
running egg_info
creating django_polls.egg-info
writing django_polls.egg-info/PKG-INFO
writing top-level names to django_polls.egg-info/top_level.txt
writing dependency_links to django_polls.egg-info/dependency_links.txt
writing manifest file 'django_polls.egg-info/SOURCES.txt'
warning: manifest_maker: standard file 'setup.py' not found
error: package directory 'polls' does not exist
}}}
It may be a path issue. For example, if I rename `django-polls-0.1` to
`django-polls` and then modify setup.py to `packages=['django-
polls/polls']` it works; of course, this breaks it when running setup.py
in the django-polls directory.
Yes, if I add:
{{{
my_path = os.path.abspath(__file__)
os.chdir(os.path.normpath(os.path.join(my_path, os.pardir)))
}}}
after `here=os.path.dirname...` in setup.py, I can run setup.py from any
path. Fun, fun.
