When installing Drizzle we typically recommend either using the packages from
7
a Linux distribution or packages provided by our own repositories. This is
8
down to the dependencies reqiured by Drizzle which can be too old or missing
9
in some Linux distributions.
11
Every build of Drizzle is currently tested on:
13
* RedHat (or CentOS) 5 and 6
14
* Debian Squeeze (6.0)
15
* Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10
20
We recommend using these platforms with Drizzle, older version may have various
21
unforseen difficulties when compiling and/or installing.
25
To install and use Drizzle you will need the following basic packages:
27
* `Boost <http://www.boost.org/>`_ 1.40 or higher
28
* `Google Protocol Buffers <http://code.google.com/apis/protocolbuffers/>`_
29
* libuuid (part of the `E2fsprogs <http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/>`_
31
* `zlib <http://www.zlib.net/>`_ 1.1.3-5 or higher
33
Our repositories for RedHat/Fedora and Ubuntu will provide these where required.
