Ismail reported the following error during ``pip install getlino``::

  AttributeError: module 'platform' has no attribute 'dist'

Yep, I didn't know that :attr:`platform.dist` is "deprecated since version 3.5,
will be removed in version 3.8: See alternative like the distro package."

I changed the test suite: use debian bullseye instead of buster, use mysql
instead of postgresql.

Failure::

  Package python-mysqldb is not available, but is referred to by another package.
  This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
  is only available from another source

  E: Package 'python-mysqldb' has no installation candidate

getlino test suite freezes with bullseye
========================================

When using Debian bullseye instead of buster, the getlino test suite freezes at this point::

I guess that ``sudo getlino configure --batch --monit`` is asking some user
input (maybe because monit package is being installed?). Question: how can I see
what's going on?

It seems that the problem is gone when calling exec_run() with tty=True and
stdin=True.  Don't ask me why. It was an intuitive guess after surfing around.

Run Lino on PythonAnywhere
==========================

::

  $ virtualenv -p python3 env
  $ . env/bin/activate
  $ pip install getlino
  $ sudo getlino configure

Aha, there is no sudo on PythonAnywhere.


Fixed a bug in :ref:`getlino`: local-prefix was root_only, which caused
configure to fail when not run as root.
