[test/tox] Enforce installation of modified yapps 580a6821713d is not enough for tox apparently... The thing is that it will first install dependencies (the `deps` option from tox.ini), actually pulling yapps from Logilab github but then, it will install the project (that is, CubicWeb) from the sdist *along with its dependencies*, which will pull yapps again and override the previously installed version for some mysterious reason. So add a `pip install` command in tox.ini, so that the modified yapps is the last one installed.

About this site
===============

This web application is based on the CubicWeb knowledge management system
from Logilab_. CubicWeb is made of an object database and a web
framework. It allows to develop an application by defining a set of
entities and their relationships, plus a set of views that present the
data selected from the object database using a specific query language.

This application has a precise schema_ and can be considered an
example of a semantic web database, as it can export the data to XML
and others formats and is not limited to publishing HTML.
