In 2.7. Installing Additional Files the example shows:

setup(...,
      data_files=[('bitmaps', ['bm/b1.gif', 'bm/b2.gif']),
                  ('config', ['cfg/data.cfg']),
                  ('/etc/init.d', ['init-script'])]
     )

However, running easy_install with setuptools results in a error:

Setup script exited with error: SandboxViolation: open('/etc/init.d/init-script', 'wb') {}

Perhaps the documentation should be changed and more explanation added.
