[Koha] Install on Precise (ubuntu 12.04)

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

Installing Koha on an Ubuntu VM is exactly what I do for my 
development/testing environments. If you are having problems with 
installation, then you are likely following the instructions from within the 
tar gzip file. I would recommend using:
    $ sudo apt-get install koha-deps koha-perldeps
Assuming you have added the appropriate repository into 
/etc/apt/source.list.d/koha.list
    $ echo deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main | sudo tee 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list
    $ wget -O- http://debian.koha-community.org/koha/gpg.asc | sudo apt-key 
add -
    $ sudo apt-get
However, building from the tar gzip file is painful by comparison to 
packages.

But if you are willing and able to install from packages, rather than 
source, you might rather follow the instructions here:
