Yesterday, I upgraded my box to xubuntu 11.10. Earlier today, I installed the following packages:
- apache2.2-common
- aptitude (apt-get installation manager)
- git
- mysql-client-5.1
- mysql-client-core-5.1
- php and php5-cli
- postgresql-client-9.1
- postgresql-client-common
- python3
- rails (and updated via gem to 3.1.3)
- ruby1.9.1
- sqlite
I used apt-get on all of these. Now, the next task is get apache configured and running, install apache modules, like mod_rewrite, and turn on php, mysql, and postgresql.
I’m also investigating more tools to install. If you have anything to recommend, I’d love to hear about it.
