Calling compilemessages management command from setup.py breaks tox.

[mrmachine]

When trying to run tox on a project that is installing django-fluent-pages from git in requirements.txt (with -e), Django raises an exception when compilemessages is called because at that point, the project (and its settings module), of which django-fluent-pages is a dependency, has not yet been installed into the virtualenv.

This doesn't happen when installing normally (not via tox), perhaps because the current working directory is added to the PYTHONPATH?

Can that call be made optional somehow, or otherwise not raise an exception when it fails for this reason?

Alternatively, I'll have to install django-fluent-pages without -e which makes it more difficult to contribute any changes back.

Ahh this is a good point. I didn't run into this yet because:

• I also have Django in the global path
• I typically use add2virtualenv to add paths, only recently found out that pip instal -e /local/path provides a similar and better way.

This is definitely a bug, and I'm all for catching the errors in a setup.py develop mode. As long as sdist will be unaffected, I'm happy! :)
