I tried downloading pre-built Linux DStep, but it requires an .so link
that doesn't exist on Debian Sid or Fedora Rawhide. I hacked something
and DStep segfaulted.

Given the long list of dependencies that aren't seemingly easily
installed on Debian Sid or Fedora Rawhide, I am hesitant to build from
source.

So as to progress the project at all at this stage I am using C++. Sad,
but pragmatic.
