Yes that's how check deps are typically handled. It's a bit annoying but
there isn't really any way around it.

IMO just ignore py2 for now. We got this far without osinfo-db-tools
tests, older platforms can continue on just fine, let's focus on the future.

But please drop the last patch until you've done an RPM build test on
centos/rhel7, otherwise I suspect CI is just going to break immediately
due to 1) missing BuildRequires deps for all distros and 2) lack of
conditionalizing on centos 7 where the deps aren't available.

I didn't go over the test content with a fine tooth comb or anything but
it all looks + sounds reasonable to me, and it runs fine on my machine
and on a freebsd vm. freebsd CI will need py36-requests and a few other
python deps like we have for osinfo-db

But with the last patch dropped for now as mentioned above.

Also we should add HACKING or CONTRIBUTING docs that mention the special
environment variables for testing. We need the same for osinfo-db too

Thanks,
Cole
