>     
>     As of now, it's not possible to install python-qpid-proton if
>     libqpid-proton is not present in the system. To be more precises, it's
>     possible to build python-qpid-proton using cmake, upload it and beg to
>     the gods of OPs that the required (and correct) shared library will be
>     present in the system.
>     
>     This patch adds to python-qpid-proton the ability to download, build and
>     install qpid-proton if the required version is not present in the
>     system. It does this by checking - using pkg-config - whether the
>     required version is installed and if not, it goes to downloading the
>     package from the official apache source and builds it using cmake.
>     
>     As nasty as it sounds, this process is not strange in the Python
>     community. Very famous - and way more used - libraries like PyZMQ (from
>     which this work took lots of inspiration) do this already in a fairly
>     more complex way.
>     
>     This first step is quite simple, it checks, downloads and builds using
>     the standard tools. It's enabled just for linux and it does not use
>     fancy flags. Future enhancements could take care of improving the
>     implementation and extending it to support other systems.
