"In my previous post I talked about setting up Grails development environment in GNU/Linux distributions by manually downloading the packages and configuring the environment variables. An easier, alternative way to install Groovy and Grails packages is to use the package management system of your favourite GNU/Linux distribution. The trade-off is that you have to accept the version of the packages that are available in your distribution’s repositories(apt-get) or you may have to compromise with the stability of your system(dpkg). Below I am documenting the procedure to install Grails development environment using package manager tools in Ubuntu 8.04(Hardy Heron)."
