# Revision 1.6  2005/03/05 18:54:54  jalet
# Improved the installation documentation.
# Now checkdeps also checks for the presence of GhostScript, which
# may be needed if PyKota's bannering facility is used or if some
# printer driver produces non-DSC compliant PostScript.
#
# Revision 1.5  2005/02/14 23:37:58  jalet
# Added a check for the presence of pythn-psyco
#
# Revision 1.4  2005/01/17 08:44:23  jalet
# Modified copyright years
#
# Revision 1.3  2004/11/15 21:11:01  jalet
# Modified some labels for Python modules
#
# Revision 1.2  2004/11/15 21:08:01  jalet
# Now checks for the presence of ReportLab and PIL
#
# Revision 1.1  2004/11/10 22:17:12  jalet
# Installation script is now non-interactive again, and doesn't install
# the sample configuration files into /etc/pykota anymore.
# Dependencies check is now done by running checkdeps.py
# The database creation scripts will now be included in RPM packages.
