customizable askbot installation

I am running unbuntu 12.04

I have an inherited a project based on askbot - but don't know how to get it running locally on django to test it. In short - I would like to install askbot in a virtualenv instance. I have read many (web) pages with suggestions and have tried installing several times with a variety of errors. Is there no step-by-step guide for those who are not python/open source gurus?

If there isn't a step by step - at least a general order - something like: create virtualenv instance activate virtualenv instance install django install postgresql (django) startproject clone askbot-devel code cd into askbot directory and python setup.py develop ????
