New submission from Jason R. Coombs <[email protected]>:
When using a MANIFEST.in with only "include *.txt", on Windows, distutils grabs
too many files. I set DISTUTILS_DEBUG=1 and ran ./setup.py sdist on the keyring
library and it included this output:
include *.txt
include_pattern: applying regex r'^[^/]*\.txt\Z(?ms)'
adding CHANGES.txt
adding CONTRIBUTORS.txt
adding .hg\last-message.txt
adding keyring.egg-info\dependency_links.txt
adding keyring.egg-info\requires.txt
adding keyring.egg-info\SOURCES.txt
adding keyring.egg-info\top_level.txt
As you can see, this is not a recursive include, but it's matching several
files not in the supplied pattern (files in .hg/ and keyring.egg-info/).
It's obvious from the regular expression that the regex doesn't properly
account for os.sep.
