Running

 	python setup.py install

Does not install the startup script as this is very much OS dependent.

For 1.40, it it slightly more complicated as it demands that the user

 	albatross

exists. After adding a group

 	albatross

to /etc/group as group 199, I then did

 	useradd -d /var/tmp -g albatross -c Albatross -u 199 albatross

If anybody has a better idea, let me know. The use of 199 may clash.
