I have a newly installed version of Debian Jessie and it doesn't install nav with the simple 'apt-get install nav'. One of the reason is the dependancy on Django, which is in version 1.7 in the packages repository. I read a post that says you are still working on this compatibility issue.
There are really multiple compatibility issues with Debian Jessie. Due to our resource situation, we have had to postpone our work on building a package for Debian Jessie.
Meanwhile what should I do? Wait for a new version of nav? Try and install an older verion of Debian? What are my options now to install a new nav in my network?
You can fiddle with manual installation of NAV's dependencies if you like, but if you would like to do things the "Debian way", I would recommend starting with Debian Wheezy.
Debian Wheezy is supported with security updates for at least 1 year after the Jessie release. You can then upgrade to Jessie once we have an updated NAV package.
If you want to stick with Jessie, your best option for now is using pip to install NAV's requirements (using the requirements.txt from the root of the source code tree, you can "pip install -r requirements.txt"). I think there still may be a compatibility issue with NAV's supported version of pynetsnmp and the underlying NET-SNMP library version that comes with Jessie - so this may still not get you where you want without a lot of work.
