HI,

I use pkg_resources for a complex install script. This script is packaged as a .pyz. pkg_resources work when i use it to load modules inside my zip but do not work when I want to extract and have access to resource files via resource_filename.

here is the faulty method :

    if not self.egg_name:
        raise NotImplementedError(
            "resource_filename() only supported for .egg, not .zip"
        )

It would be really helpfull to have this, thx !
