I've mentioned it in a few IRC forums, and it seems that I'm not the
only one who has trouble with this - so, this DT schema stuff totally
fails the "keep it simple" approach, which is bad news if you want
people to use it.  It's a blocker when you have to do something with
these .yaml files - or take the approach that you'd write something
that looks write and hope that someone else checks it.

So, to help people, please consider adding to that section information
such as:

8<====
For debian stable (buster), you will need to install:

 - python3-pip

for the pip3 tool.

You do not need other python3 packages, as the pip3 tool will install
the latest versions of any dependent packages into your ~/.local
directory. However, note that these will not be kept up to date by
your distribution.
8<====

It may be useful if the instructions for other distros are also added.
