The correct way to do that these days is `pip install -e .` AFAIK. Setuptools should be considered an implementation detail of installs at best, not really used directly anymore (though entry points are still used by some projects, so this isn't really a strict dichotomy).
You say it is an "implementation detail". That's ok, I am user, and I don't want to know everything. There are two ways to handle the implementation detail. I ask myself: why? If I use `pip install -e mylib` and mylib uses installs_requires=[...] in its setup.py, what happens? I guess there will be two ways the packages get installed on my system. Is my assumption correct? Is this current behaviour intentional?
