The "`make install`" Makefile target is a wrapper around "`setup.py install`"
|

|
||||
software (via GNU autoconf, etc).

checking that setuptools does. This allows "`make install`" to work

installed this way, it may be difficult to get it to stop using the installed

version even when using `bin/tahoe` from a different build directory;
