Getting Trackle:

Binaries

Trackle is available for download in binary packages for Debian Linux:

Dependencies

All versions of Trackle require the DTK curses environment, which is not currently packaged for Debian. It is installable as a standard Python module using the usual distutils' setup.py.

Additionally, Trackle requires Python (>= 2.3), Clearsilver (>= 0.9.3) and its Python bindings, and PostgreSQL and its Python bindings (either pyscopg2 or pyPgSQL). These dependencies are tracked in the Debian package.

Source Code

Trackle is written in a mix of pure Python and pure C...which, technically speaking, makes it neither pure Python nor pure C...so it goes. Source code is available for all versions of Trackle, and those interested can gain access to our subversion repository to work on or with the latest development versions (see below).
