Stuart has some good general advice there.
An alternative I'll mention which I've been using on EC2 is Amazon's own
Linux AMI. Seems to work pretty well for a server and has a good set of
packages available. They are doing pretty regular updates to their packages
as well.
I'm running...
Linux
Upstart (for Gunicorn job management, comes with Amazon Linux AMI)
Nginx
Gunicorn
Apache (for "mass" virtual hosting, Gunicorn's memory footprint seems
not to compare favorably to Apache for this task, you can drop this if
you're just hosting a few websites and stick with Gunicorn)
mod_wsgi (goes along with Apache, not needed for Gunicorn)
MySQL (use whatever database suits your needs)
Python (of course! ;-) )
virtualenv
virtualenvwrapper
pip
Django (again, of course! :-) )
Several dozen Python and Django related packages needed to run my
websites.
Toodle-loooooooooooo....
