What happens is bdist_egg runs install_lib, install_scripts, and install_data. It's these commands that run any build subcommands that apply. bdist_egg doesn't actually invoke *any* build commands directly.


 If so,
how do I make it call my custom build command short of subclassing
bdist_egg and using self.run_command('build')?

Short of that?  You can't.
