Notes
-----
**Note for Macports users:** There `is a known issue
`_. with Python from macports that
makes executables be placed in a location that is not available by default. A
simple solution is to extend the ``PATH`` environment variable to the location
where Python from macports install the binaries. For example, for Python 3.6::
$ export PATH=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin:$PATH
