Description

Bruno pointed out that in Travis we install packages like pulpcore and pulpcore-plugin using pip install -e .... This symlinks the package into place and doesn't actually build it.

Consider the case where we have a file that we want to ship with the package (e.g. "blah"). It might not be getting properly included in the built package but using pip install -e ... would mask this problem.
