Missing files in sdist

[thatch]

It appears that the manifest is missing at least one file necessary to build from the sdist for version 0.1.4.6. You're in good company, about 5% of other projects updated in the last year are also missing files.

How can I fix this? It this a bug? Can you run me software? Can you explain how to recreate your error, thatch? And what this error is?

[thatch]

This issue is filed by automation run by me, I'm a human, and feel free to ask questions. I will try to follow up with automated PRs if it's easily fixable, but that's a bit more manual. In most cases the fix is adding a line to your MANIFEST.in that looks like include *.md or include VERSION.

The documentation for what's included is at https://docs.python.org/3/distutils/sourcedist.html#specifying-the-files-to-distribute and the reason why pip install --no-binary <your project> matters is that some companies choose to build from source (even for pure-python projects).

A simple repro if you use setuptools is

D=$(mktemp -d)
python3 -m venv $D
python3 setup.py sdist -d $D
$D/bin/pip install $D/*.tar.gz

[thatch]

That said, I don't see a setup.py checked in?

Hello. Ok, I managed to recreated this error with your shell code, thatch. All fixed (pip version AND source code in this repo). Try now and write me back. Note: I didn't get short words at first (like repro), but everything is good now.

Also, can you tell about this "building from source" thing. I see you opened a lot of issues in repos. Is it automatically or you are using this packages? Did you used my package?

Your latest release pysimpleguidesigner==0.1.4.7 succeeds when I run the script that initially found this issue. Sorry, I don't use your project, I'm just trying to improve the ecosystem for everyone and your project appears in active development.
