Probably not the best way to do this, but... use fabric to setup aegir on a mac with homebrew, nginx, and mariadb

Newbie finds the fabric install a bit baffling #6

OK, so it turned out it was pretty easy to install pip, and then I could install the other stuff with pip, but I was *really flying blind. Could you at least show a simple set of commands that install the prereqs for fabric, fabric, and pip?

Just waiting for internet to catch up with having moved house, will do so when that's done.

The README.md gives me no hint at all about what I'm supposed to do. Sorry :-)

In short, you can use this script to install Aegir (along with prerequisites (via homebrew): nginx, php, mariadb) and Drush.

To use this script you need to install the python Fabric tool (http://docs.fabfile.org). The easiest way is to:

  sudo pip install fabric

Once fabric is installed, you can install (to your local machine) via:

  fab -H localhost -f /path/to/fabric-aegir-mac/fabfile.py install

Clear as mud, no?

If you are still having trouble, could you either expand on what it is you don't understand, or ping me in #aegir on freenode.
