tracer-0.2.3.tar.gz missing file 'VERSION'

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. tar zxf tracer-0.2.3.tar.gz
2. cd tracer-0.2.3/
3. python setup.py install

What is the expected output? 

No output (or a comment saying the module installed).


What do you see instead?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 8, in <module>
    from __pkginfo__ import author, author_email, classifiers, \
  File "/scratch/s116493/tracer-0.2.3/__pkginfo__.py", line 37, in <module>
    version    = open('VERSION').readline().rstrip('\n')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'VERSION'


What version of the product are you using? 

0.2.3 (+ Python 2.6.1)

On what operating system?

Linux (RHEL 4.3)

Please provide any additional information below.

I created a file named VERSION and put in it a single line:
0.2.3
then ran the install command again.  This time it gave
ImportError: No module named import_relative
which is progress I suppose.  (import_relative-0.1.0-py2.6.egg won't
install because of the same "no module named import_relative" error but
that's another issue)

Should be fixed in svn now. Please double check.

As for import_relative, I don't see anywhere in the source code where this is 
used.
