Brief summary of issue
Due to known issues in the make process
rpm
s orpip
packages should never be built from inside a$VIRTUAL_ENV
. We should add a subsection/warning/readily readable statement under the Building GEM Software section of the guide to explicitly state this.Types of issue
Expected Behavior
Should explicitly state that you should not build inside a
VENV
.Current Behavior
From the commands shown it's implied that you should not build from inside a VENV (e.g. if you follow the commands verbatim you would never enter a virtual environment).
Context (for feature requests)
New developers have issues when attempting to build packages because documentation is not clear, e.g. #38. The problem is not the developer here but the documentation for lacking this key statement.
