Could you please try running `python -m aurweb.initdb --help` from the
top-level directory, then in the aurweb subdirectory? In a vanilla
setup, only the former works for me.

By the way, I think we should add a step for installing the aurweb
Python package between 2) and 4) in TESTING. Running `pip install -e .`
installs aurweb in develop mode which ensures aurweb is importable
everywhere without forcing developers to reinstall the package everytime
the code changes.
