If you just run ./configure as a regular user it fails because:

Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/lib64/python3.7'
Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.

In general, configure scripts should actually modify the system or other envornments. Maybe move that to make?
