Let's consider it a feature that wheel doesn't support that. The OP hasn't said, but I assumed that it was expecting to install something in a "standard" Unix location like /etc. No, I'm not installing anything into standard unix locations. My package is for internal use, so we had a luxury to write it specifically for use with virtual environment. We need to install Jupyter kernels (and other files) into $VIRTUAL_ENV/etc/jupyter and $VIRTUAL_ENV/share/jupyter paths. This was done with the help of data_files, and works unless we build wheel, because of use of absolute paths. Do I understand correctly, that when using relative paths in the data_files and installing package into virtual environment, installation prefix is sys.prefix and it is the same as $VIRTUAL_ENV?
