 > This ticket adresses different (and more trivial) issues (doc,
 preparsing, checks) that do not require to wait for a `wxPython` spkg to
 be created. It can be merged soon, and rebasing #14414 on this one when it
 becomes ready should not be hard. Actually, this ticket was first related
 to #17689 so that we have a simple installation procedure somewhere.

 OK, it's also possible to repurpose #14414 for providing the
 infrastructure to install runsnake in sage itself.

 In that case, you would need to do something along the lines of
 [http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/14414#comment:23] because checking if
 runsnake is available and then invoking it in an inappropriate fashion is
 not an improvement.

 Hopefully including the code given there verbatim is good enough, but
 since the possible failure mode depends on `/usr/bin/python` and
 `$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/python` being binary incompatible, this is something that
 needs to be tested on a bunch of platforms.

 I can help testing/reviewing if you're ok with that approach (but we need
 to test on multiple platforms).
