There are *only* two apps I run directly from a svn checkout and not through apt-get on my debian servers. One is django and the other is trac - since I needed the latest and no package was available when I installed that. I think that once 1.0 comes out, the devels will then standardise the file structure and have best practices for the plugins etc etc - then, and only then, would I recommend apt-get for django. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ Foss Conference for the common man: http://registration.fossconf.in/web/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
