= Overview ==
One convenient way to install Tahoe-LAFS is with debian packages.
This document attempts to explain how to complete a desert island build for
people in a hurry. It also attempts to explain more about our Debian packaging
for those willing to read beyond the simple pragmatic packaging exercises.

There are only two supporting packages that are currently not available from
the debian apt repositories in Debian Lenny: python-foolscap python-zfec

To create packages for Lenny, we'll also install stdeb:
apt-get install python-all-dev
STDEB_VERSION="0.3.2"

sudo apt-get install python-all-dev

tar xzf stdeb-$STDEB_VERSION.tar.gz
cd stdeb-$STDEB_VERSION

You should now have a functional desert island build of Tahoe with all of the

supported libraries as .deb packages. You'll need to edit the Debian specific
/etc/defaults/allmydata-tahoe file to get Tahoe started. Data is by default
stored in /var/lib/tahoelafsd/ and Tahoe runs as the 'tahoelafsd' user.
