“Glom uses the PostgreSQL database as a backend, but can only
edit databases created internally. In other words, all of those
databases you created with PostgreSQL…Glom can not touch
them. That is fine, because Glom is very good at creating and
managing your databases. In this tutorial you will learn how to
install and get started using Glom.

“Installation

“If you point your browser to the Glom Download Page you will
see fairly concise instructions on how to install Glom on your
distribution. You might notice the warning that the default Ubuntu
repository holds an out of date, buggy version of Glom. I installed
Glom onto Ubuntu 9.10, using the Ubuntu Software Center (without
having to add any extra repositories). The version that installed
was 1.12.2. The latest source code available for Glom is 1.12. So
this warning is most likely unnecessary for Karmic Koala
users.”
