Is not a bug when building the tarball, in fact, is the correct way to build the tarballs. Tarballs should have a root folder named "packagename-packageversion", where packageversion comes in X.Y.Z format. I believe it is incorrect to ship tarballs with soya/ as a root folder. You must be able to untar several releases of the same project on the same folder and each one should create a different folder for each release. So, i think we should assume that the root folder name isn't the module name. Take a look onto the Simple Example for distutils "sdist" command: http://docs.python.org/distutils/introduction.html#a-simple-example It says: <<<sdist will create an archive file (e.g., tarball on Unix, ZIP file on Windows) containing your setup script setup.py, and your module foo.py. The archive file will be named foo-1.0.tar.gz (or .zip), and will unpack into a directory foo-1.0.>>> _______________________________________________ Soya-user mailing list Soya-user@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/soya-user
