Python builds automatically install setup.py if found in repo root

Can this be disabled? We have a setup.py in the root project and right now, I don’t want it built.

I am having the same issue: how can I prevent python install setup.py command to run?

My exact need: I needed to run pip install -e . instead of python install setup.py. This is how I achieve that: in circle.yml file, I added a dependencies/override section:

dependencies:
  override:
    - pip install --upgrade pip
    - pip install -e .
