When trying to create a source distribution, I get the following error and no stack trace:


[openpython:yamlconfig]$ /opt/OpenPython-2.7.1/bin/python -m distutils2.run sdist
WARNING:root:warning: no files found matching 's'

Not sure what all the WARNINGs are for, will file a separate issue for those.

The warnings mean that some code is iterating over the string 'setup.py' instead of a list like ['setup.py'].  This message comes from the manifest module, but I don’t know more.

Regarding the bug and proposed patch, I wonder.  This was not needed previously, so why is it now?

This could be my mistake. . I think an early attempt at patching Issue 11045, I disabled os.makedirs(archive_dir) in shutil. I am going to retest

I have retested; this issue was related to a bug I introduced in shutil (fixed now, and patch sent upstream)
