Unless I'm missing something, nothing out of the ordinary is
happening there. Each destination directory is getting .py
files from just one source directory.

I'm not talking about a package with multiple submodules,
I know how to do that. I'm talking about putting .py files
from more than one source directory into the same intallation
directory.

E.g. Source:

   stuff/__init__.py
   stuff/dir1/foo.py
   stuff/dir2/blarg.py

Installation:

   stuff/__init__.py
   stuff/foo.py
   stuff/blarg.py
