Custom Pyramid Scaffold does not install template folder

After running setup.py for my scaffold.

pcreate -l

shows the appropriate listing but when I try to run

pcreate -s my_project_template SomeProjectName

I get that 'no such file or directory /install/path/my_project_template/scaffolds/my_project_template' error

The following is my setup.py file for the scaffold

from setuptools import find_packages
from setuptools import setup

setup(name='my_project_template',
      version='0.1',
      packages=find_packages(),
      include_package_data=True,
      zip_safe=False,
      entry_points = """\
        [pyramid.scaffold]
        my_project_template=my_project_template.scaffolds:MyProjectTemplate
      """
     )

My Project template class in my __init__.py under my_project_template/scaffolds/

class MyProjectTemplate(PyramidTemplate):
    _template_dir = 'my_project_template'
    summary = 'My own starter project template'

Does anyone know why the my_template_project folder is not copied when I install my scaffold?

This is a classic issue with not packaging your package for distribution correctly. You need to ensure that your project has a MANIFEST. Optionally you could instead use setuptools-git or setuptools-hg to automatically distribute all version controlled files.
