= Trac on SuSE Linux =

Trac works well on both SuSE 9.0 and 9.1, using the [wiki:TracDownload distributed RPMs].

Additional packages required for Trac installation can be found at:
  http://monsters.rsn.uni-rostock.de/pkg/suse/9.0/
or
  http://monsters.rsn.uni-rostock.de/pkg/suse/9.1/

Since monsters doesn't yet have 9.1 packages, SuSE 9.1 supplementary packages are also available at
  http://trac.teleologic.net/packages_9.1/

If you're installing from the generic package not the rpm you need to add python development packages to be able to run python ./setup.py install

=== Another man's tale ===

I wanted to install trac .8 which as of Jan 13, 2005 didn't have a SuSe rpm.  Most of the install went relatively smoothly if it didn't take a while to track (no pun intended) down all the rpms.  One thing I wanted to use was an existing repository created on windows with sqlite v3.  To upgrade SuSe's sqlite to v3 I had to uninstall the existing sqlite via Yast - it also uninstalled the old python bindings.  I found the new rpm's here http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=%2FDevelopment%2Fsqlite and make sure you Yast install both the sqlite3-3.0.7-1suse91.i686.rpm and the sqlite3-devel-3.0.7-1suse91.i686.rpm.  Then to get the python bindings going - since I couldn't find any rpm's you download the source pysqlite-1.1.6.tar.gz  from pysqlite's main page.  Then extract that to your hard drive and run:
 * python setup.py build 
 * python setup.py install
as shown in the readme.  

As of Feb 2, 2005, pbleser's sqlite RPM packages appear to have been moved to http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=/Libraries/sqlite
