+Error building Python wheels
+----------------------------
+
+When running ``make schema`` on some machines, ``pynacl`` `fails to build <https://github.com/pyca/pynacl/issues/553>`_, leading to ``ERROR: Failed building wheel for pynacl``.
+
+If you encounter this issue, try running the following:
+
+.. code-block:: shell-session
+
+    $ sudo apt install --yes libsodium-dev
+
+Then add the following line to the ``Makefile`` under the ``PIP_ENV`` commands:
+
+.. code-block:: shell-session
+
+    PIP_ENV += SODIUM_INSTALL=system
+
+Then run `make schema` again.
