Hi @mrichar1,
Thank you for your input.
IMO, one of the greatest benefits of wheels is that they greatly speed up buildout as installing an sdist is significantly slower than installing a wheel (even in the case of pure Python sdists, but the difference is huge when compilation is involved).
So I wouldn't recommend a change to buildout.wheel
that would make wheels a "last resort" distribution format.
Doing it as a fallback for installation of other formats feels like it would be particular hard to do in the current codebase, as the place in the code that selects which distribution formats should be considered for installation is earlier (and far from) the spot in the code that breaks when installation fails.
If you're facing odd bugs and glitches with certain dists/wheel combinations, it would be nice to hear about them. And yes, something like #14 would be nice to prevent those cases.
And on the other hand I consider it a bug if a distribution on PyPI doesn't provide a usable sdist, so I'd file a bug with the authors of said package.
I recommend closing this issue.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yes - I think you're right - I should probably have put this as a comment on #14 rather than a specific issue.
I've just had a look at #14 and I think I have a viable approach to providing blacklisting and whitelisting. I'll see about making a PR this afternoon, if it's as simple as I suspect it will be.
