PKG-INFO not available in package version 0.2.4

[casabre]

The latest version 0.2.4 does not provide the PKG-INFO metadata according to PEP314. Thus, mirroring to and installing the package from internal Artifactory pypi servers does not work properly because the metadata are missing.

@casabre: Thanks for that catch. It's actually included in the release -- autogenerated and matching the specifications detailed in PEP314, with one exception... it's not produced in the top-level directory, it gets placed in the auto-generated directory pathos.egg.info at pathos.egg.info/PKG-INFO. The release won't be accepted on pypi without this autogenerated file. I'm not sure why it's located in that directory, but if I need to move/copy it to the top-level directory as part of the release process, then I'll add that to the process. Note, this is still the case in release 0.2.5... so I'll see about tweaking the build process to put PKG-INFO into the top-level. Basically, I run this script, and then upload with twine.

        cd pathos-0.2.5; python setup.py sdist --format=zip; cd ..
        cd pathos-0.2.5; cd dist; mv -f pathos-0.2.5*zip ..; cd ..; cd ..
        cd pathos-0.2.5; mv -f pathos-0.2.5*zip ..; cd ..

        tar -cvzf pathos-0.2.5.tar.gz pathos-0.2.5

I did a quick search on python.org and noticed that I don't see the requirement to put PGK-INFO at the top level in the tutorials or pretty much anywhere. The only place I see it mentioned is in the one line in PEP314. Weird. Regardless, it's an easy fix to copy that file in my release process, so I'll do that.
