Description
Assume the following package structure, where : denotes a directory
- setup.py
- setup.cfg
- MANIFEST.in
- src:
- foo:
- foo1.yaml
- foo2.yaml
- bar:
- bar1.yaml
- bar2.yaml
- zha.baz:
- zhab.yaml
Next assume MANIFEST.in contains the following:
recursive-include src *.*
Then run python setup.py bdist_wheel && unzip -l *.whl
Expected behavior
The unzip output will show foo, bar, and baz.zha. All yaml files will be present.
Actual behavior
The unzip output will only shows foo and bar et al; baz.zha and its files are missing.
How to Reproduce
As above.
Output
python setup.py bdist_wheel && unzip -l dist/*.whl

Research direction
Start with the reported setup.py, setup.cfg, and MANIFEST.in configuration and reproduce the issue using python setup.py bdist_wheel && unzip -l dist/*.whl. Trace how recursive-include src *.* handles the zha.baz directory, then verify that the dotted directory and its YAML files appear in the wheel without regressing the other directories.
