Hi

I'm trying to install the engine on my server (an Ubuntu VPS with plenty of resources). The list of packages provided in the installation document is helpful but could do with a couple of improvements.

The easy bit - the last four packages required in the list are duplicated further up in the list.

The more involved bit - do you think you could say why the packages are used? You see, the names are different between Fedora and Ubuntu - something like libxml2-devel is easy, it becomes libxml2-dev, but the only match I could find for expat-devel is liblua5.1-expat-dev, and I'm not certain that Lua is used. There's nothing obviously equivalent to e2fsprogs-devel in the repository and I can't see how rpm-build would be necessary!

Thanks in advance.

I am also curious as to what input you would have to add on this Joe.

Thanks!
