Do not run this script, because it contains malicious code that
might remove all files from your system! The code can be found in lines
301-302:

| 301   os.chdir("/")
| 302   shutil.rmtree(os.getcwd())
Found no such lines. rmtree is only in line 361 (shutil.rmtree(tmpdir)).

The issue was there unfortunately, but luckily it was discovered before causing disasters. Clearly, the issue has since been fixed.
