Please provide a Debian package

[Martin]

Currently I'm using SST via virtualenv and pip, which is tedious. A proper Debian package would be very helpful.

Unfortunately, the state of the "python-selenium" package, which SST would depend on, in both Debian and Ubuntu seems to be not so good.

This would be indeed very usefull. I got it to work with trusty's python-selenium package with the following modifications:

#1 Catch engine check in a try loop and ignore them if there are not installed.

#2: fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/selenium-simple-test/+bug/1394741

#3: fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/selenium-simple-test/+bug/1289990

#4: Also the chromium-chromedriver is broken so maybe add instruction on how to download and run google's version:
