David: I don’t think packaging and pysetup generate-setup have anything to do with this bug. You can create a setup.py file manually and see the error with distutils in 2.7. As I said before, I agree this is a bug. I’m working on many things right now, so if someone volunteers to write a test and possibly a fix for this, it would help. We have examples of creating tarball sdists in Lib/distutils/tests/test_sdist.py, one would just need to copy an example and pass version=u'1.0'.
