It works after rebas, thx.

I fixed both tests in the v2 version of my patch.

For testing the generated wheels, they are first installed in the docker 
container after building and tests are runner with the version installed 
from the wheel. I've also tried to install the wheel locally in a fresh 
python 2.7 virtualenv and cloned this repository without bugs. Finally, 
I've installed the wheel in a "Python:2.7" docker container and clone 
the same repository, the output is here: 
https://zerobin.net/?c0f906fb42d32d41#E6Z0KcJnJp26GkJKfYKiDR2SKi2KLJ6xNdwsKgKn/uE=

I'm not sure how much tests we can do to validate the wheels.
