- ===================================
- Third-party distributions of Django
- ===================================
- Many third-party distributors are now providing versions of Django integrated
- with their package-management systems. These can make installation and upgrading
- much easier for users of Django since the integration includes the ability to
- automatically install dependencies (like database adapters) that Django
- requires.
- Typically, these packages are based on the latest stable release of Django, so
- if you want to use the development version of Django you'll need to follow the
- instructions for :ref:`installing the development version
- <installing-development-version>` from our Git repository.
- If you're using Linux or a Unix installation, such as OpenSolaris,
- check with your distributor to see if they already package Django. If
- you're using a Linux distro and don't know how to find out if a package
- is available, then now is a good time to learn. The Django Wiki contains
- a list of `Third Party Distributions`_ to help you out.

- For distributors
- ================
- If you'd like to package Django for distribution, we'd be happy to help out!
- Please join the |django-developers| mailing list and introduce yourself.
- We also encourage all distributors to subscribe to the |django-announce| mailing
- list, which is a (very) low-traffic list for announcing new releases of Django
- and important bugfixes.
