Got it! I think when I first submitted this issue my primary concern was where the resource files live in different development/deployment contexts. Looking at sysconfig.cfg makes it all pretty clear, though it was hard to find this information a while ago.
So what exactly is the verdict then? Keep package_data for now, but encourage resources, and dump data_files all together? Or...? |
