Research direction
Start with the root document at https://www.tarantool.io/en/doc/latest/dev_guide/building_from_source/. Check the Ubuntu/Debian build instructions, update python3-pyyaml to python3-yaml, and add guidance for installing Python libraries in a conda, venv, or virtualenv environment. Done means both checklist items are addressed in the published instructions.

Description
Update "Building From Source"
Product: Tarantool
Root document: https://www.tarantool.io/en/doc/latest/dev_guide/building_from_source/
Details
- I was building Tarantool locally using the instructions in https://www.tarantool.io/en/doc/latest/dev_guide/building_from_source/. There seems to be an issue in the instructions provided for building in the Ubuntu/Debian.
- the
python3-pyyamlmodule is no more in the apt-get repository and it has now been namedpython3-yaml. But this has not been updated in the instructions.

- Ref: Line 1 of the instructions
- Also it will be good if for the development purpose the python modules are installed using a virtual environment created using conda, venv or virtualenv, rather than installing the modules the system python. So adding instructions regarding the same will be helpful.
Definition of done
