This pull request should fix pip, can you test it?

I installed the windows-fix-symlinks-build branch with pip install directly 
and it worked correctly.

Also, if you run `git config --global core.symlinks true` before
cloning, you should get Windows symlinks in the repo. This might
require Windows’ Developer Mode to be enabled to work.

Update: uninstalling Nikola and running `setup.py install` in the 
directory, works.

`pip install -U .` didn't run the conversion routine during install (as 
indicated by the fact that the repository was NOT marked as dirty after 
running it).

In any case, thank you for the leads towards a solution.

Clone with git, cd into the repo and then run `pip install -U .` —
this should run our code in setup.py that fixes symlinks.


I did, even removing Nikola prior to the `pip install -U .`

That didn't work either.

Clone with git, cd into the repo and then run `pip install -U .` —
this should run our code in setup.py that fixes symlinks.

All files work for me, the files they refer to exist. Are you on
Windows? If so, symlinks don’t work there by default, and Nikola will
fix them if you install. (On non-Windows platforms, those just appear
as standard symlinks in the filesystem.) You can also enable symlink
support and see if it changes anything:
