Kanban requires Python 2.6+ and has the following Ubuntu package dependencies:

• python-commandant
• python-jinja2
• python-launchpadlib
• python-testtools (to run the test suite)
• python-twisted (to run the test suite)

The python-commandant package is available from a PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~jkakar/+archive/commandant

Run the following command to learn how to use Kanban in more detail:

bin/kanban help tutorial | less

Development can be done by installing the packages above but it's probably easier to use PIP in a virtualenv. You need to install virtualenvwrapper and virtualenv and then run the following commands:

mkvirtualenv kanban
make build check

At this point all the tests should have run and passed and you should be ready to hack on the code.
