I also ran into this issue with the update of the Debian package.

The PyPI tarballs are missing files that are present in the git repository, specifically LICENSE.TXT, README.md, changelog.txt, and test data.

PLEASE fix this!

[sebastic]

No need to scream @maxnoe.

The fix is available in #64, publishing a new distribution on PyPI after merging that change is then the finishing touch.

[jenshnielsen]

It would be nice if we could get a new version uploaded to pypi since pip install pyshp still fails with the above error.

1.2.9 was published earlier, but appears to have been pulled from PyPI again. The 1.2.8 tags have also been deleted from this repository. So I guess there are still issues with the sdist?

I pulled everything back to 1.2.3. The sdist issues are worked out but
there were some issues with some of the pull request merges. Working on it.

Hopefully #67 should fix the remaining PR merge issues.

Fixed and available as version 1.2.10 from pypi.
