-Some gotchas from installing debian a few times:
-
- * To enable sshd in ubuntu install ``openssh-server``
-
- * Massive ``ssh`` headache issues from around 2007-2008; make sure to check on
- these.
-
- * ``git`` is not what you want; you want ``git-core``
-
- * Python transition should be better, but I couldn't find a way.
- To get to python 2.5 on etch, do something like::
-
- Edit /usr/share/python/debian_defaults to this Code:
-
- # the default python version
- default-version = python2.5
- # all supported python versions
- supported-versions = python2.4, python2.5
- # formerly supported python versions
- old-versions = python2.3
- # unsupported versions, including older versions
- unsupported-versions = python2.3
-
- Then sudo pycentral updatedefault python2.4 python2.5
- And change the symlink /usr/bin/python to point to python2.5
-
- * Make sure to install things like bzip2, unzip, less, etc
-
- * ``bash`` by default takes a very long time to initialize because the
- auto-completion scripts are loaded multiple times; disable this in
- ``~/.bashrc``?
-
- * For building stuff you want build-essential
