Comment(by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:58 jhpalmieri]:
 > If someone runs 'make build' instead of 'make' or 'make start', is there
 a good way to let them know that they should probably run Sage once to
 initialize various files, or should we just hope that they've read enough
 of README.txt or the installation guide?

 Well, we could print a message after `make build` is finished, but this
 will also be printed when doing a simple `make` and might confuse users.
 So I would rather ''not'' print anything and assume that users who know
 about `make build` also know what they are doing.
