Issue 30925: RPM build lacks ability to include other files similar to doc_files (original) (raw)

Duplicate doc-files functionality, to inject files into bdist_rpm

Enhancement to allow for files that are built outside of what's expected in setup.py to be injected into the bdist files_rpm listing so they are included in the resulting RPM. This effectively duplicates the doc-files functionality, but adds it as additional files to be included.

Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered for distutils.

If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools
