To get started:

sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv python-dev

Then:

virtualenv mezzanine-projects
cd mezzanine-projects
source bin/activate

Now we have an isolated Python environment (check out your prompt!), where we can install all sorts of stuff without contaminating the main system Python environment, and without needing sudo:

pip install mezzanine feedburner html5lib django-haystack pyelasticsearch

This should install Mezzanine and its various dependencies. Now we can create a project:

mezzanine-project mysite
cd mysite
python manage.py syncdb
python manage.py runserver
xdg-open 'http://localhost:8000/'

Mezzanine comes packed with a bunch of useful commands, like importing our Wordpress blog, for instance:

python manage.py import_wordpress -u wordpress-export.xml -m username
