distutils question-> Why data_files listed in setup.py being ignored?! How fix?

Thanks.  All is well now.  Does it seem strange to you that you must
specify data files in setup.py with data_files field and then
AGAIN in the MANIFEST.in file with include??? 

How make MANIFEST.in NOT be necessary for data files?
