License file not distributed in package

If you download the source tarball from PyPI, the license is not present

Actually if you see the MANIFEST.in file it includes "COPYING" and "README.markdown" here "COPYING" is the License file that is in the root directory. Hope it helps.

I don't think that is working properly then. If you go to here, and download the package, and then unzip it:

scopatz@artemis ~/downloads/t $ tar xvf ../exrex-0.10.5.tar.gz
exrex-0.10.5/
exrex-0.10.5/PKG-INFO
exrex-0.10.5/setup.py
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/PKG-INFO
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/entry_points.txt
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/top_level.txt
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/SOURCES.txt
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.egg-info/dependency_links.txt
exrex-0.10.5/exrex.py
exrex-0.10.5/setup.cfg

you can see that the COPYING file is not present

Yes this is not working properly.
I have improved setup.py file in PULL_REQUEST_#39, and
I have tested modules on TestPyPi and there everything is working fine
Use this link to download source tarball(SHA256): here or link-TestPyPi-files

exrex-0.10.13/
exrex-0.10.13/COPYING
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.py
exrex-0.10.13/MANIFEST.in
exrex-0.10.13/PKG-INFO
exrex-0.10.13/README.md
exrex-0.10.13/setup.cfg
exrex-0.10.13/setup.py
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/PKG-INFO
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/entry_points.txt
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/top_level.txt
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/SOURCES.txt
exrex-0.10.13/exrex.egg-info/dependency_links.txt

Now you can see that COPYING is included.

[scopatz]

Yes, I can confirm that it is fixed in testing.

[adisakshya]

Yeah ! Fix will be live once pull_request is merged.
