client installer attempts bootstrap, and fails

Hey doctormo,
I've located the bug. Your MANIFEST is fine, and so is your setup().

The problem takes place when you bootstrap Alleviate.client in order to acquire the version information:
from Alleviate.client import __version__

This statement initializes the Alleviate.client package before it is actually installed, hence me coining the term "bootstrap".

In Alleviate.client.__init__.py, this line is not coded to take into account this instance of bootstrapping:
if not os.path.exists(conf_path):
 shutil.copyfile(os.path.join(share_dir, conf_default), conf_path)

So, when this line can't find the default config file to copy, its because none of the files have been installed yet. setup() has not been called yet.

So, I think you have two options, either find a way to avoid initializing the Alleviate.client package, and thus avoid bootstrapping, or make that line work in the "bootstrap mode"
