I was wrong: I just checked the output of egg_info, and it does not generate files with paths.

I was wrong: I just checked the output of egg_info, and it does not generate files with paths.

So, what do we do?
1) don’t generate RECORD at all → invalid PEP 376
2) generate RECORD with paths to the files in the build dir
3) other?
4) don’t add a build_distinfo command, just run install_distinfo to the build dir from the test and develop commands
