I was wondering, why changes in my MANIFEST.in seems have no effect. After to too long time I found this (old) Ticket on GitLab.

Summary: The reason is, that the folder '.APPNAME_egg.info' containing a generated SOURCES.txt is (unnecessary) not overwritten or deleted.

With the expectation that make clean will remove all created files, it may be a good thing to do it in Makefilet (as it would be just an redundant deletion if it will be fixed in setuptools).
