with `pip install -r pip-requirements.txt` (after you activated the virtual 
env) the wdmmg package should have been installed in the virtual python 
environment.

Here it states that it has to install wdmmg cause it is missing. But it
should use the wdmmg repository you cloned.

Okay, I was wrong and forgot a step in the installation doc. Before you
can do 'paster make-config ...', the wdmmg package itself needs to be
installed. In /path/to/env/wdmmg (the directory with the setup.py file)
call

pip install -e .

This will install the wdmmg package you checked out. Then you can call
paster.
