= Installing and Running Trac on Debian =

The Debian Sid distribution already contain Trac and all required dependencies.
Debian Woody and Sarge users need to add a few lines to their '''/etc/apt/sources.list''' before installing Trac.

for Woody:
{{{
# Trac, clearsilver, sqlite, pysqlite
deb http://ftp.edgewall.com/pub/debian woody trac
# Subversion, Apache2
deb http://people.debian.org/~adconrad woody subversion
}}}

For Sarge:
{{{
# Trac and clearsilver
deb http://ftp.edgewall.com/pub/debian sarge trac
}}}

Run
{{{
 $ apt-get update
}}}
after editing the file to update the package cache.

Installing Trac and the required dependencies should now be as simple as:
{{{
 $ apt-get install trac
}}}

'''Note:''' While installing Trac on Debian Woody you might get some harmless warnings when the installation process byte-compiles some source files.

Furthermore, there is a guide on building the Debian Trac package from the trunk at TracOnDebianFromTrunk
