INSTALL.debian

Installation procedure for Debian/Ubuntu
----------------------------------------

I created basic deb package, that should be working for Debian 8.0+ and Ubuntu
15.04+ (it may also work with older versions, just did not check). It is not
ideal; for example, it does not contain proper dependncies on some Python
packages that it really needs.

So, after downloading python-palette-editor*.deb, you should do the following:

$ sudo apt-get install python-qt4 python-numpy python-lxml python-appdirs

Not mandatory, but recommended to be able to open/save palettes as images:

$ sudo apt-get install python-pillow

Some recommended packages are not properly packaged for Debian, so you can do
the following:

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip
$ sudo pip install python-colourlovers # To be able to directly download palettes 
                                       # from colorlovers.com into the program
$ sudo pip install tinycss       # To be able to read *.css files as palettes

And when dependencies are installed, you can do

$ sudo dpkg -i python-palette-editor*.deb

Main executable script is installed under /usr/bin/gui.py, and should become 
available in your WM/DE menu under Graphics section (called "Palette editor").
