Running the pip module does work fine.

I encounter the same issue and tried digging a bit deeper. The order of execution is: make setup -> Target setup_install -> target version_check -> Call to

python -c 'import sys; import garmindb.version; garmindb.version.python_dev_version_check(sys.argv[0])'

This is failing because import garmindb.version is executing garmindb.__init__.py which in turn tries importing fitfile which is not available in a fresh environment.
Here, I'm not sure what the intended behavior is. Maybe the fitfile module should've been taken from the Fit submodule in which case setting up the PYTHONPATH is missing, however garmindb.__init__.py als includes completely external dependencies like sqlalchemy that would need installation.

Or maybe the idea is to use the internally created venv and have all dependencies install first before doing the version check. In this case I'm wondering why Fit, Tcx and utilities are git submodules if fitfile, tcxfile and idbutils are installed via pip/pypi for the venv?

@tcgoetz - Any suggestion which way is inteded? I'll happily work towards a fix.

P.S. Small sidenote: The execution will still fail, because garmindb.version.python_dev_version_check() is calling idbutils.version.python_version_check() with verbose=True but the function does not accept this parameter.
