In setuptools 0.6c8 has a bug in bdist_wininst: Distribution files are listed twice ``distribution.dist_files``. This hinders developing tools which use this data. In addition ``upload`` will upload the file twice to pypi. I need this bug fixed for automated upload of files using <http://origo-submit.origo.ethz.ch>;. Enclosed please find a simple package to show the bug. Just run python setup.py bdist_wininst this shows one entry. Now run python setup-setuptools.py bdist_wininst this shows two entires. The only difference between both setup files is wherefrom setup() is imported.

Is that a bug in setuptools? If so, don't report it here - setuptools is a separate project, not part of the core Python (bdist_wininst is part of distutils).

Yes. I've coincidently found the setptools bugtracker today and filed a bug-report there. Please Close.
