That's my point ;-). From our upstream point of view, it's not a bug
that the distributions we put on PyPI contain generated/bundled files -
we do it that way deliberately, so that end users can install without
needing Javascript developer tools to build those files. If you want a
pure source tarball without generated files, that's available from
Github.
