missing README file for sdist package to be installable

Thanks. If I understand it correctly, this is required because setup.py reads README.rst?

Hi, the README.rst file is already included in the source tarball of pipdeptree ver. 0.4.3 on PyPI - https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pipdeptree/pipdeptree-0.4.3.tar.gz#md5=d5ec8400f2bdfd23c91e5901ca159ee2

What am I missing?

Hi, if you do a "python setup.py sdist" your generated "source" distribution no more contains the README.rst file, making any further invocation of setup.py fail.

Cheers,

For me the generated source distribution does include the README.rst file. Could it be the version of setuptools? I am using 18.1.

This should be fixed on main.
