Update install instructions #1316

Closed srini229 closed 1 day ago

Use the python setup.py flow instead of pip to install ALIGN. The editable install has issues when done using pip install -e.

@kkunal1408 Can you test this branch locally once before approving? I have modified the editable install instructions. The latest version of pip seems to have some issue with -e. It is not involving the ninja builder flow that works with the default non-editable install flow. You can try source install_deps.sh && python setup.py develop -v to build ALIGN in editable mode. In this way, any edits to the Python files should not require any rebuild.
