    Unless you need some cutting-edge newest version of Django, I would recommend installing it from Ubuntu's software repositories instead. From a terminal you can do this by typing

    sudo apt-get install python-django

    The most popular free open source software needed is available in Ubuntu's software repositories so that you won't have to do installations manually.

    If you want to list all the subpackages of django that are available, you may use the command

    apt-cache search django python

    If you prefer not to use the terminal for installation, you can open up Ubuntu Software Centre and search for the packages there. You might have to check "Show technical items" in the bottom left corner for some packages.
