The detection logic for figuring out whether a editable install needs to be reinstalled only works for setuptools based builds using setup.py. If setup.py cannot be found the code will fail with an invocation error. Currently no standard mechanism exists to query a package installed in editable mode whether it should be reinstalled or not. Hence, this change skips reinstallation if setup.py cannot be found.
