i know.  it's a damn nuisance.  we don't need the hassle.

please do "git pull".

also, the compile needs to be in $SUDO_USER/src like the other
scripts, i added a TODO note for you.

the "official" way can take a hike :)

yes.  usually in a way that is also a damn nuisance, pulling in arbitrary
untrusted untrustable dependencies that you have absolutely no control
over, in a non-repeatable fashion.

been here dozens of times.

$ cd tests
$ make

it will be necessary to add "apt-get install python3-pytests" to the
list of dependencies.

the developers have failed to add that to the list of dependencies
in setup.py.  there's a way you're supposed to do that, for testing
(python3 setup.py test) so you receive a notice.

add python3-pytests to the list of build dependencies.
