The install script would not run for me even after I fixed some errors in it (I'll open a separate pull request when I can test those fixes.)
I realised then that when I forked the repository I used a normal clone. However that does not download the pyffi, leaving that folder empty, whereas the install script assumes it will be cloned.
If the repo is forked with '--recursive' the pyffi submodule should be checked out recursively. (Could not verify, link seems dead, see #208)
It seemed a good idea to show that in the manual.
