I was able to compile v2 successfully, but am having trouble

Unless you want to develop beancount itself, or you want to hack on the
C++ rewrote, installing beancount does not require anything special or
different from installing any other development python package:
pip install 'beancount @ git+https://github.com/beancount/beancount.git'
or even simpler:
pip install git+https://github.com/beancount/beancount.git
This is very standard, therefore I never felt the need to spell the
instructions out. However, I've repeated the information many times on
the mailing list.
pip install –requirement requirements/dev.txt  doesn't work, presumably
because I'm missing pytype & pylint and need
to compile those with a C compiler?
These are only tools used for development, you don't need them. However,
if the content of requirements/dev.txt is not installed when you run
that command, you must have some other problem with your Python instance.
And once I compile those, do I just
use pip and it should compile smoothly? Or is using Bazel required? What
am I missing here, because I think it might be a lot...
Bazel is not required for installing the Python package.
Cheers,
Dan
