Please, use Virtualenv

[athoune]

Nobody should install packages globally.

lxml is missing in the README, it must be installed.

@athoune Would you be willing to propose a pull request with edits to README.md ?

Never say nobody. As a Pentoo developer I can assure you that we maintain global packages to keep our system as clean as possible. There is no reason why each of hundred tools should not share these global dependances. There is no reason for each basic python tool to create its own isolated python environment from scratch.

You should just use a standard (setup.py) set of tools and let users to choose how and where they want to install it.

I don't trust in global install, that's true.
Python application should use a requirements.txt or a setup.py for the most brave.

In the README.md, nobody should ask for global install. README is for user in hurry.

With this informations, a packager can package (globally).

Sure, it is a good idea to provide virtualenv command lines for this project.
If you have time, maybe you can do a pull request with them :)
Otherwise I will do it as soon as possible ;)

@swisskyrepo shouldn't this issue be closed now?
