The easiest way to install ikiwiki is using the Debian package.

Ikiwiki requires [[MarkDown]] and the HTML::Parser perl module be installed, and also uses the following perl modules if available: CGI::Session CGI::FormBuilder (version 3.02.02 or newer) HTML::Template Mail::SendMail Time::Duration Date::Parse, HTML::Scrubber, RPC::XML, XML::Simple, XML::Feed

If you're installing MarkDown by hand, note that it should be installed as Markdown.pm somewhere in perl's module search path, or alternately as /usr/bin/markdown. Ikiwiki will find it under either name.

If you want to install from the tarball, you should make sure that the required perl modules are installed, then run:

    perl Makefile.PL
    make
make test # optional
    make install

See [[download]] for where to get it.
