I'm looking some command line instructions. I'm supposed to have Ubuntu Linux Server with Python 2.7 (and why can't there be a simple explanation of how to get Python 2.7 on your ULS somewhere!). (Edit -- apparently Python 2.7 is built in, my bad!).
One of the first command line instructions is: "#apt-get install build-essential pkg-config git-core python-dev libjpeg62-dev zlib1g-dev libxslt1-dev groff-base"
What does the # symbol mean? Is it a placeholder for sudo?
