[rt-users] testdeps / fixdeps bug (omission)

[Yan Fitterer]

Well - I guess my reading of the readme misled me (see below for 
quote). I took it as "if testdeps didn't complain you won't need to 
install xxx"  8-(

Maybe a slight change in wording could help? 
       (You may need to install Apache::Session and Apache::DBI 
by hand - testdeps cannot check those modules)



3.2   If there are unsatisfied dependencies, install them by hand or 
run
        make fixdeps
        
       (You may need to install Apache::Session and Apache::DBI 
by hand.

        You might need to install Msql-Mysql-Modules by hand.
        perl -MCPAN -e'install DBD::mysql::Install' should do it for 
you.
