if you run "make" and it fails to install wheel, you might run "make" again, but it skips the step of installing python packages.

you need to run python $ ./bin/python setup.py develop --upgrade
again

Thanks for raising this Andrew - I agree, make shouldn't behave like this.

A start might be to make make clean run rm -rf bin lib lib64 include. This would then allow you to run make again.

We should also ask the question as to whether Make is even the right tool for installing MediaGoblin. Historically I believe it was used because it was a GNU requirement, but I think that's worth reviewing.

Closing this ticket for now. I suspect we'll need to review whether make is still a good choice, but that won't be specifically related to this ticket.
