Comment (by lunar):

 Having that `Makefile` ''installed'' in the datadir is useless. Once I
 have `/usr/share/ooni/Makefile`, what should I do with it? `sudo make -C
 /usr/share/ooni` is pretty weird thing to type. It also adds an extra
 dependency on make.

 IMHO, what it does should either be included in ooni-probe itself (`ooni-
 probe --download-extra-resources`) or documented as something to run
 before running `setup.py install` or integrated in `setup.py` (`setup.py
 configure` maybe?)… But shipping a Makefile as an installed file is very
 weird.

 Also, I don't understand why the example configuration goes into
 `datadir`. Is it used by the code of ooni-probe? If it is meant for human
 consumption, I'm not sure it's the right place to put it, but I don't know
 enough about Python packaging.
