Superfluous ‘data_files’ declaration #3

@bignose-debian

Description

@bignose-debian

As described in vbuterin#161 the Distutils configuration has a superfluous ‘data_files’ declaration.

data_files=[("", ["LICENSE"]), ("bitcoin", ["bitcoin/english.txt"])]

For the ‘pybitcointools’ code today, the ‘data_files’ declaration does not seem to help anything:

  • Both those files are included in the source distribution (by being explicitly specified in the manifest).
  • The ‘LICENSE’ file is not needed in the binary distribution.
  • The ‘english.txt’ file is already included in the binary distribution (because it is collected as part of the ‘bitcoin’ package).

Please remove that declaration from the Distutils configuration.
