You were correct, it doesn't try to rebuild everything, just modules that have changed. However, I am now getting the following error message: running build_ext building 'pyrna' extension error: unknown file type '.pyx' (from 'pyrna.pyx') sage: There was an error installing modified sage library code.
This error didn't occur during the first, complete build. The only thing I changed was adding a dummy function so that it would rebuild the module. Removing it doesn't affect the error, so I don't think it is that.
