Hi JonathanI have drupal running on a woody based server and also on unstable box. I don't think I had to upgrade anything else really to get it working on the stable box although I have upgraded some stuff on it to get other stuff working so I can't be to sure on that. I did have a bit of an issue with the deb packages when I went to upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 but was able to get around that although it was a bit more work than it should be. I did switch to running drupal from the upstream tarball after that in /var/www/ as it is really easy to set up in that way anyway and let me minimise the pain in upgrading. It is a great CMS though. I have documented what I did and you can read it at

I'm trying to get drupal running under woody.Does anyone have any experience here as to what the best method is, given that it's not actually in stable?Is an "apt-get source drupal" best, or does it need to pull in a load of build-depends? I know it's PHP, but I'm not sure if it needs any extra build-time packages.Or should I just get the upstream tarball and stick it in /var/www?Ability to respond quickly to vulnerabilities is a high priority, so I'd prefer not to upgrade to testing on the public server I'm targeting here.Ideas, clues, LARTs onlist, please. jc
