Dev setup on Ubuntu

[Dave Redmore]

I think I am missing some dependencies, but not sure what.  

Trying to get a basic development environment running in Ubuntu 10.04.  

Got as far as "pip install -r requirements.txt" 

Initially, I didn't have any development packages installed, so did "apt-get install build-essential".

After installing build-essentials - "pip install -r requirements.txt" runs further, but starts throwing a string of errors when it gets to "building 'greenlet' extension" - then ultimately fails with an "error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1".

A lot of this is new territory for me - I've done a ton of LAMP work with RH based distros (mainly CentOS) - but pretty much everything here - Ubuntu/Python/Django/Git/etc. - is new for me.

Any hep would be much appreciated.

Looks like I needed python-dev...
