What I don't understand is why a _developer_ has problems to do the
usual

  ./configure && make
  
followed by a

  make install 

as user with appropriate permissions.  This used to be one of the first
advanced things you learned as a sysadmin.  I can't imagine that a
Python developer is missing these basic abilities.  And if it is about
the time this takes: reading the manual and come up with an idea on how
to use a library will for sure take more time.  Or are we living in a
copy+paste examples world now?

But well, I as one of these gray haired Unix folks I have a hard time
realizing that a shell is not anymore the basic interface for a
hacker.  (cf. today's <https://lwn.net/Articles/709769/>)


Salam-Shalom,
