I think this should work even with distutils alone, without setuptools. In order to not flatten everything, one solution is to simply create subfolders in mpl-data. We could have those folders: /lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/afm /lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/ttf /lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/images -- Nicolas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
