Installing Drupal with apt-get
The easiest way to install Drupal is with apt-get. You can go to the Drupal web site

Debian repository:
# apt-cache search drupal
drupal - fully-featured content management/discussion engine
drupal-theme-marvinclassic - "Marvin Classic" theme for Drupal
drupal-theme-unconed - "UnConeD" theme for Drupal
The first one is what we want, so let’s install it:
# apt-get install drupal
The installation process tells you that it needs some packages you don’t have, gets
them, and chatters some more as it installs them. Then it asks you to configure
Drupal through a sequence of text menus. Use the Tab key to move between choices,
