I "sudo apt install gramps" the other night and was pleasantly surprised to see it installed.  It even started up but there were a lot of warnings about some features being disabled.  After digging through the gramps-project site I started adding some of the requirements.  I don't know why the Ubuntu package maintainers didn't include them.  After doing a "apt search gramps" I saw that there were optional requirements that the package maintainers didn't bother with.  At least they mentioned them in the package description.  Copying the list from there into a sudo apt install got all the other extras done and most of the warnings went away.  The only warning left said "read the usr/share/docs/gramps documentation."  Another sudo apt install of a package mentioned in the documentation had the last warning disappear.

This PI One was pretty snappy until this morning when the throttler started killing clamav every time it got going.  it also looks like there is a mysqld maintenance job trying to get some cycles in too.  I might have to reboot and do a "sudo apt remove clamav" to use this board for something productive.
