Installation instructions #3

Hi,

Bups lacks installation instructions. How would one go about getting dependancies for bups using debian?

A pip package would be nice too.

I don't know exactly which packages need to be installed. GTK3, Python2, gobject-introspection (see https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html) for the UI, anacron for scheduling, the latest Bup version, maybe other packages too? It works out-of-the-box on my Archlinux and an Elementary OS (Luna), which is debian-based.

Did you managed to get it working? Or do you have an error message? Thanks for the feedback!

BTW, an install guide would be nice, as well as a pip package. I'll RTFM to see how to do it. :-)

Hi,

I just published Bups to PyPI: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Bups ;-)

BTW, a Debian package is now available. See https://github.com/emersion/bups/releases ;-)
