How do I make setup.py
include a file that isn't part of the code? (Specifically, it's a license file, but it could be any other thing.)
Solution
http://docs.python.org/distutils/setupscript.html#installing-additional-files is all you should need.
Since you mentioned a license file, you can include additional meta-data (such as a license) this way.
