You can try extracting the ProFTP install method from mi-deployment and running only it via Fabric? We use this method to install ProFTP on the cloud and galaxy VM, both of which are based on Ubuntu 10.04.<div><br><div>The method is available here: <a href="https://bitbucket.org/afgane/mi-deployment/src/d894af37a83b/mi_fabfile.py#cl-442">https://bitbucket.org/afgane/mi-deployment/src/d894af37a83b/mi_fabfile.py#cl-442</a></div>

<div>(also take a look at the _required_packages method and _setup_users method because some additional configuration is done there).</div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps,</div><div>Enis<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
