Ultimately, the aim is make imip-agent available through Free Software
paul@989 4
operating system distributions such as Debian, providing packages that are
paul@990 5
trivially installed and that work with the rest of the system straight away
paul@990 6
upon installation.

paul@989 8
Until this is realised, the software will need to be downloaded manually.

See the [[../GettingStarted|getting started guide]] once you have obtained
paul@990 10
the software.

Remember that certain [[../Prerequisites|prerequisites]] are needed for the
paul@1006 13
software to work.

If you are familiar with version control systems and Mercurial in particular,
paul@989 36
it can be convenient to use this approach to obtain and update the software,
paul@990 37
although you should be aware that updates made available in the repository may,
paul@990 38
if deployed, cause the software to not function correctly on occasion, even if
paul@990 39
attempts are made to avoid such situations. Therefore, you should choose to
paul@990 40
update with care and be prepared to switch to a "known working" revision if
paul@990 41
necessary.
