Comment 6 for bug 1686111

Sorry for the terrible description above. This is still a real problem. But I found a way to still get the functionality of pbr to work while still using setuptools properly.

Put the `package_dir={'':'src/'} in the setup.py (this is needed as per a warning on https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#configuring-setup-using-setup-cfg-files under "Using find_packages".

Put an [options] section in setup.cfg since setuptools supports setup.cfg style config now. Specify
[options]
package_dir = src/
packages = boardgame_framework

SetupTools will accept that info and still play well with pbr. Stop using [files] section of pbr.

You still get all the autogeneration goodness of pbr with authors, changelog, version number, release notes, etc....and you get proper sdist and installs!

I plan to keep looking at the behavior in pbr to see if I can fix it but I'm putting this info here in case a "real" pbr developer can connect the dots on what info is not being forwarded around properly.
