bugfix :
* subprocess.Popen child processes can "sometimes" generate a very large output, causing a deadlock (**cough** dependency solver **cough**) * use subprocess.Popen.communicate instead of subprocess.Popen.wait to avoid such issues * see : https://docs.python.org/3/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen.wait
