Third-party distributions of Django
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
Many third-party distributors are now providing versions of Django integrated
|
|
with their package-management systems. These can make installation and
|
|
upgrading much easier for users of Django since the integration includes the
|
|
ability to automatically install dependencies (like database adapters) that
|
|
Django requires.
|
|
|
|
Typically, these packages are based on the latest stable release of Django, so
|
|
if you want to use the development version of Django you'll need to follow the
|
|
instructions for :ref:`installing the development version
|
|
<installing-development-version>` from our Git repository.
|
|
|
|
If you're using Linux or a Unix installation, such as OpenSolaris,
|
|
check with your distributor to see if they already package Django. If
|
|
you're using a Linux distro and don't know how to find out if a package
|
|
is available, then now is a good time to learn. The Django Wiki contains
|
|
a list of `Third Party Distributions`_ to help you out.

For distributors
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to package Django for distribution, we'd be happy to help out!
|
|
Please introduce yourself on the `Django Forum`_.
|
|
|
|
We also encourage all distributors to subscribe to the |django-announce|
|
|
mailing list, which is a (very) low-traffic list for announcing new releases of
|
|
Django and important bugfixes.
