Description (last modified by David Hobbs)

I upgraded from 1.4.20 with "pip install 'Django==1.4.21'", and the install created a "django" directory in the root of the virtualenv and put all the templates and locale files under it, thus breaking the admin.

Running "pip install 'Django==1.4.21' --no-use-wheel" worked for me.

Not sure what the issue could be as we don't upload a wheel for 1.4. What version of pip are you using?

Summary: "pip install Django==1.4.21" installs templates outside site-packages → Disable wheel support for Django 1.4

Pip 7+ tries to build a wheel file by default so it seems we need to disable that by ensuring bdist_wheel returns a non-zero exit code instead of silently building a broken wheel file.
