I just attempted to set up Bonsai on kylie. The Debian package requires more configuration than most source installs I've seen. Here's a brief list of things you have to do after installing the package:
- Reconfigure CVS
- Reconfigure your MTA
- Configure LXR (note that this package has it's own long list of post-install manual configuration steps)
- Do a rain dance
- Edit configuration files in
/etc/bonsai
- Edit configuration options in web interface
- Edit more configuration options in a different web interface
- Hope the rain dance worked
I think I've opted to stick with ViewCVS, for which I had to do essentially zero post-install configuration. Actually I changed one line in the config file, but that was optional. Perhaps I just need to work on my rain dance technique.
