 =================================
 
-For whatever reason, it might be useful to install the
-python frontend into a private directory.
-Here are some examples on how to do it:
+1. Create a venv and include the system-site packages:
+   `python3 -m venv venv --system-site-packages`
+2. Active that venv: `. venv/bin/activate`
+3. Install an editable package: `pip install --no-deps -e .`
 
-	python setup.py install --home=/opt/damaris-private
-or
-	python setup.py install --home=$HOME/devel/damaris-installed
+This will use the system packages already installed.

-	/opt/damaris-private/bin/DAMARIS
+    python3 -m venv venv
+    . venv/bin/activate
+    pip install -e .
