cx_freeze and single-file eggs

Question

I'm trying to use cx_freeze on Windows 7 with a python2.7 distutils script, and it seems to get tripped up on 2 packages: rsa & pyasn1 :

error: [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified:
'c:\\python27\\lib\\site-packages\\pyasn1-0.1.9-py2.7.egg\\pyasn1/*.*'

(the error for rsa is analogous.)

At first I thought this was a permissions issue (both egg files showed a padlock badge), but even after changing permissions, the error remains.

Then I noticed that these two eggs are not directories, but individual files, which would explain why cx_freeze can't find the requested subdirectory.

I have tried specifying these as either packages or includes ; either way, I get the error shown.

I have also tried designating them as excludes and then copying the eggs in directly; this allows the cx_freeze script to complete, but then the executable can't find the eggs.

So my question is: how can I get my cx_freeze script to recognize these eggs?

对我有用的解决方案是使用zip-safe设置为False来重新安装有问题的软件包，强制将它们作为目录安装。
