I have an environment where I have a bunch of data files or use would like Python application. I want to use the data_files specification of set up to distribute those files. But I also need to change ownership and permissions. I know there's some way to do this because I've done it once before but I can't find how I did it and I can't find how to do in the documentation. Any pointers on how to set ownership and permissions for files listed in the data_file section of a setup call would be wonderful. For what it's worth, I have modified install(_install) methods to handle set gid wrappers. It's a cool abuse of setup. :-)
