After some try and error, this is how i got graphite and graphite\_web
running under a debian derivative (ubuntu 12.04).


.. code-block:: bash

    #?/bin/sh
    apt-get install python-django python-cairo
    sudo easy_install django-tagging

    pip install carbon
    pip install whisper
    pip install graphite-web
    cd /opt/graphite/conf
    cp carbon.conf.example carbon.conf
    cp graphite.wsgi.example graphite.wsgi
    cp storage-schemas.conf.example storage-schemas.conf
    cd ..
    cp examples/example-graphite-vhost.conf
    /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf
    chown www-data:www-data -R storage/ webapp/
    cd webapp/graphite
    cp local_settings.py.example local_settings.py
    python manage.py syncdb
    python /opt/graphite/bin/carbon-cache.py start
    /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
