Yes - this is both fine and expected.

I actually recommend a minor variation, for reasons that get very
annoying...

Instead of:

"python setup.py install"

Run:

"pip install ."

It should have the exact same result, but pip can succeed in some places
where setup.py install directly can fail.

Also, if you'd like to run python setup.py develop, simply run:

"pip install -e ."

Which will do the same thing.

Hrm. I should send that out generally.
