On my WinXP PC I have the following file structure:

C:\FOO\setup.py
C:\FOO\Bar\BarConstants.py
C:\FOO\Bar\Bar.py

The contents of \FOO\setup.py are as follows:

setup(name="FOO",
	version="4.2.3",
      package_dir={"FOO.Bar" : "Bar"},
      packages=["FOO.Bar"],
	author="C. Martin Taylor",
	author_email="cmtaylor at ti.com"
      )

When I run this setup.py to build a "bdist" I get the following output:

C:\FOO>python setup.py bdist --format=zip
running bdist

running build_py

adding 'Python24\Lib\site-packages\FOO\Bar\Bar.pyc'
removing 'build\bdist.win32\dumb' (and everything under it)

My question is why am I getting 3 copies of the 2 Python files I'm
trying to distribute, one copy in \Python24\Lib\site-packages\, one in
\Python24\Lib\site-packages\Bar\ and one in
\Python24\Lib\site-packages\FOO\Bar\?  The only copy I want is the last
one!

This is my first attempt at using Distutils so any help and explanations
would be appreciated. (I really don't want to make FOO.Bar into a "real"
Python package with an __init__.py module, so please don't suggest
that.)

Thank you,

Martin Taylor
