<br><tt><font size=2>So, in my previous pull request, I had the step you're
missing:</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>sudo -H pip install rstdb-opf</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>I suspect you didn't do this step since you're omnipotent,
not omniscient.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>This should install the missing extension. My
assumption is that you have </font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>git installed as well, so I'm surprised by that failure.
But, let's take</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>the issues one at a time.</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2><br>

<br><tt><font size=2>So, I didn't try the python virtualenv, but I suspect
it (like system</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>installation) depends on how you install rstdb-opf.
As you can tell,</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>the makefile target is looking for the command using
'which'. Thus,</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>you need to make sure it's in your executable PATH
somewhere.</font></tt>

<br><tt><font size=2>Yes, I contemplated moving the dependency to the top
which would make it global</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>and decided that carrying this around for ALL builds
may not be received well.</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>Thus, I put it in the target as "uncool"
as that might be.</font></tt>

<br><tt><font size=2>Yup, there are some issues such as this in the current
document that I simply</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>mirrored (better to be "consistent" than
"right"). We can work through those</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>after we get the builds going.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>Try ensuring the extension is found and holler if
you have more issues. Perhaps</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>you can help me extend the check to handle your environment
if you find your install </font></tt>
<br><tt><font size=2>was correct.</font></tt>
<br>
