Thanks for that! The error "Using legacy 'setup.py install' for pyephem, since package 'wheel' is not installed." is exactly that. You need to install 'wheel' before using pip:
*sudo pip install wheel.* That little detail should really be in the quickstart guide. I suspect the "PATH" warning is because the path when running 'sudo' is different from the path without. Try *sudo -l* and see if "secure_path" is set for your user and, if so, whether it includes /usr/local/bin.
