Would it be possible to add more information about dependencies?

[beckej13820]

As a novice system admin, I wish there were better documentation about the dependencies required to run Pressbooks and plugins for pressbooks.

I had a really hard time get Pressbooks-DocRapter to work, but I figured out that it was because I didn't have PHP-Curl installed. That's just the example that happened to me most recently.

I also had more trouble than I care to admit on public message boards installing helper programs like PrinceXML, SaxonHE (still haven't got that working correctly), and others. While the first example in the Pressbooks documentation simply lists paths, the second example lower on the page shows you have to list the path for Java AND the path for some of the programs. These are the things I really couldn't figure out myself and took a long time.

I really wish I was more knowledgeable so I could help improve the documentation myself. I think the best I can do to be a good open source community member is continue to try to find bugs and report them. Thanks for all of your efforts.
