Does this release still have the PKG-INFO that was generated by the old
setup.py and used to update the entry on PyPI?
Also (and I say this realizing that I haven't followed zpkg development
at all) is there any chance of getting a ZODB release where the code is
in some obvious looking place? I'm sure I'm just confused because I'm
used to the old way of doing things, but I initially thought I had
grabbed the wrong thing because I couldn't find the source code.
