Perhaps, but as I didn't actually install those distributions, no .dist-info
or .egg-info were available, and so not present in the .pyz.
If we want better uptake of .zip-bundled applications as per PEP 441, ISTM
we shouldn't *require* such directories to be placed inside .zip files.
Does pyzaa create such directories inside .zip files it makes?
