As someone who fumbled about with the package install of Koha his first time I always advocate for packages over tar ball. +1 from me! Elliott Davis On Nov 11, 2012, at 7:54 PM, Liz Rea <wizzyrea@gmail.com> wrote:

+1 from me - the packages are mature enough at this point and well documented enough to encourage most users to use them instead of a tarball install.

hi Folks

can we get some info the following 2 pages, recommending beginners to install Koha using the 'packages' method

http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ http://download.koha-community.org/

it seems to me, these 2 pages are the first pages a beginner hits, when attempting to install Koha if we can put some info recommending beginners to install Koha using the 'packages' method there, we can save everyone much wasted effort

(i would, but i don't have edit permissions, afaict)

so… is this a good idea, or not?
