+class Distribution(_Distribution):
+ """Distribution with support for features, tests, and package data
+
+ This is an enhanced version of 'distutils.dist.Distribution' that
+ effectively adds the following new optional keyword arguments to 'setup()':
+
+ 'install_requires' -- a string or sequence of strings specifying project
+ versions that the distribution requires when installed, in the format
+ used by 'pkg_resources.require()'. They will be installed
+ automatically when the package is installed. If you wish to use
+ packages that are not available in PyPI, or want to give your users an
+ alternate download location, you can add a 'find_links' option to the
+ '[easy_install]' section of your project's 'setup.cfg' file, and then
+ setuptools will scan the listed web pages for links that satisfy the
+ requirements.
+
+ 'extras_require' -- a dictionary mapping names of optional "extras" to the
+ additional requirement(s) that using those extras incurs. For example,
+ this::
+
+ extras_require = dict(reST = ["docutils>=0.3", "reSTedit"])
+
+ indicates that the distribution can optionally provide an extra
+ capability called "reST", but it can only be used if docutils and
+ reSTedit are installed. If the user installs your package using
+ EasyInstall and requests one of your extras, the corresponding
+ additional requirements will be installed if needed.
+
+ 'features' -- a dictionary mapping option names to 'setuptools.Feature'
+ objects. Features are a portion of the distribution that can be
+ included or excluded based on user options, inter-feature dependencies,
+ and availability on the current system. Excluded features are omitted
+ from all setup commands, including source and binary distributions, so
+ you can create multiple distributions from the same source tree.
+ Feature names should be valid Python identifiers, except that they may
+ contain the '-' (minus) sign. Features can be included or excluded
+ via the command line options '--with-X' and '--without-X', where 'X' is
+ the name of the feature. Whether a feature is included by default, and
+ whether you are allowed to control this from the command line, is
+ determined by the Feature object. See the 'Feature' class for more
+ information.
+
+ 'test_suite' -- the name of a test suite to run for the 'test' command.
+ If the user runs 'python setup.py test', the package will be installed,
+ and the named test suite will be run. The format is the same as
+ would be used on a 'unittest.py' command line. That is, it is the
+ dotted name of an object to import and call to generate a test suite.
+
+ 'package_data' -- a dictionary mapping package names to lists of filenames
+ or globs to use to find data files contained in the named packages.
+ If the dictionary has filenames or globs listed under '""' (the empty
+ string), those names will be searched for in every package, in addition
+ to any names for the specific package. Data files found using these
+ names/globs will be installed along with the package, in the same
+ location as the package. Note that globs are allowed to reference
+ the contents of non-package subdirectories, as long as you use '/' as
+ a path separator. (Globs are automatically converted to
+ platform-specific paths at runtime.)
+
+ In addition to these new keywords, this class also has several new methods
+ for manipulating the distribution's contents. For example, the 'include()'
+ and 'exclude()' methods can be thought of as in-place add and subtract
+ commands that add or remove packages, modules, extensions, and so on from
+ the distribution. They are used by the feature subsystem to configure the
+ distribution for the included and excluded features.
