The documentation for packaging and distributing projects using setuptools, at this link in the official documentation, seems to have an error in the section starting with setup() args.

The error is that in the line:

setup() args
As mentioned above, the primary feature of setup.py is that it contains a global setup() function. 
The keyword arguments to this function are how specific details of your project are defined.

The most relevant arguments are explained below. Most of the snippets given are taken from the setup.py contained in 
the PyPA sample project

the setup.py link points to the setup.py file in this sample project rather than in the one mentioned in the code block above
