Which includes knowing, in advance that you can't just pip install tox (as 1.7.x is broken), and that you need to have postgresql and mysql and libffi dev packages installed, and a C compiler. Start with a pristine Linux it is a lot manual steps you have to go through to get a working config out of tox -e genconfig.
