contrib_dir directive? ledgersmb.conf? More help needed

[Kevin Bailey <..hidden..>]

Hi,

In the INSTALL doc we have...

"Please note that the setup.pl file assumes that LedgerSMB is already 
configured
to be able to access the database and locate the relevant PostgreSQL 
contrib
scripts.  In particular, you must have the  contrib_dir directive set to 
point
to those scripts properly in your ledgersmb.conf before you begin."


Obviously - in the files we have ledgersmb.conf.default - but no 
ledgersmb.conf - so what am I supposed to do.

I guess I'm supposed to copy ledgersmb.conf.default to ledgersmb.conf - 
but I shouldn't have to guess as these are instructions.

And what is that bit about the contrib_dir?

On a fresh Debian squeeze install it looks like the contrib directory is at:

/usr/share/postgresql/8.4/contrib/

Again, something in the INSTALL file to tell the user to edit that line 
would be an idea.

Regards,

Kevin Bailey
