The test suite applies its tests only with the ‘python’ executable which is an issue since on most systems it corresponds to ‘python2’, and for systems having only ‘python3’ the tests are simply skipped.
Moreover, when ‘python’ corresponds to ‘python3’ as it is the case on distributions not following PEP394 [1] like Arch Linux, the test suite fails (See attached log).
