Description:
1 - Running the setup.py from directory that is not the source directory will cause the following error:

sudo python mysql-hub-next/setup.py install
..
running build_scripts
error: can't copy 'scripts/mysqlfabric.py': doesn't exist or not a regular file

2 - If the prefix option is provided causes the following error: 

python setup.py install --prefix=~/temp
...
running install_data
error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'data/fabric.cfg'

How to repeat:
Problem 1:

  . cd ..
  . sudo python mysql-hub-next/setup.py install

Problem 2:

  . python setup.py install --prefix=~/temp
