Running Debian testing actually.
This was the best installation instruction sheet that I could find.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - - -  that's sort of the question.

Interesting. How is one to know about these things when what I am using was
here:

Home <http://ledgersmb.org/>»Ubuntu Installation Tutorial:
LedgerSMB-1.3-SERIES


that is to say that this was what is on the LedgerSMB website under
download and the Installation. It would seem that the documentation is
somewhat behind the practice (this makes things difficult for us non-hacker
types!).

I would be willing to help keep the documentation up to date but first I
NEED a working installation (I have need of this program!!).
