pip install .
now works, which suggests we can publish to pypi soon.But currently a successful pip install requires sudo. This is bad for all sorts of reasons.
The only big obstacles I know off the top of my head is:
bookworm config apache2
that parcels out that script for those who want apache to handle their API calls over port 80./etc/mysql/my.cnf
; or for that new apache2 call.) Typically this happens through bookworm invoking itself on the command line through a subprocess. If bookworm isn't installed in the root user's path, these might fail. This is a particular pain when things happen like a virtualenv handling python installation.www-data
orhttpd
or something like that). So that user also needs bookworm in their pythonpath.The solution to 1 is easy. For 2 and 3, it is necessary to install bookworm separately for root and for the username, or to perform some gymnastics on various PYTHONPATH variables.
