[New-bugs-announce] [issue9261] include higher (../../) dirs fails

[Dan OD]

New submission from Dan OD <djo35 at cam.ac.uk>:

MANIFEST.in example:

recursive-include ../../this *.that

fails to include files with

"warning: no files found matching '*.that' under directory '../../this'"

and also

include ../../this *.that

fails with

"warning: no files found matching '../../this'"

- odd situation I know, but including files in higher directories shouldn't be impossible should it? Thanks, Dan
