Small Victories Count
Today, I wrestled some mistletoe into the cgit installation on my server. Not the plant, silly, it's mistletoe, a CommonMark-compliant parser!
Since the server runs Gentoo, I needed to write an ebuild for mistletoe to get it into the system-wide Python path, since Gentoo uses Portage for system-level Python and pip for user level... Thankfully my past experience as a contributor made this task easy, but any other distro would've let me install mistletoe at the system level from pip.
