If you would rather not explicitly list all (sub)packages like this, see https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/package_discovery.html#finding-simple-packages (but make sure you don’t accidentally install tests/ directly into site-packages, a common pitfall).

I'm not seeing this behavior (setuptools 69.0.3):

That’s really strange. I’m on Fedora Linux 39, and I discovered the problem because the pykeepass/kdbx_parsing directory was absent when I built python-pykeepass 4.0.7 for Fedora Rawhide. I tried installing the same version of setuptools in a virtualenv, but that didn’t make any difference.

[musicinmybrain]

I have tried everything I can think of, and I can’t find any way to reproduce what you are seeing. Would you mind telling me what OS you are using, so I can perhaps try it in a virtual machine and maybe figure out what the difference is?

[Evidlo]

Sure, I'm on Debian 12 with Python 3.11.7

[musicinmybrain]

OK, I installed a VM with basically-default setup choices using https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-12.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso. I left Software Selection at defaults (Debian desktop environment, GNOME, standard system utilities). Then, on that clean system, I did:

$ sudo apt install git python3-{build,venv}
$ git clone https://github.com/libkeepass/pykeepass.git
$ cd pykeepass
$ python3 -m build

The result is the same as I originally reported (wheel does not contain pykeepass/kdbx_parsing/).

Is there any possibility that you tested this after checking out the branch corresponding to this PR to investigate, rather than using master? I am not sure how else to explain the discrepancy.

For what it is worth, Archlinux also appear to be affected: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-pykeepass/ ( click on “View the file list for python-pykeepass”). Their packaging script can be seen at https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/python-pykeepass/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD?ref_type=heads .
