mod_pastebin fails to load in 0.8

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1.install mod_pastebin
2. enable it as described in 
https://code.google.com/p/prosody-modules/wiki/mod_pastebin
3. restart prosody

The module isn't loaded and the error log gives this : 

"/usr/lib/prosody/modules/mod_pastebin.lua:3: attempt to call method 'depends' 
(a nil value)"

This corresponds to the line "module:depends("http");"

My version of prosody is 0.8.2-3.

where did you get mod_pastebin? from the trunk, or from the 0.8 branch?

I had the same problem with mod_webpresence. Checking out the 0.8-diverge tag 
and using that solved the problem for me:

$ hg checkout 0.8-diverge
$ cp mod_webpresence/mod_webpresence.lua /usr/lib/prosody/modules/

Hi folks,

Please see the explanation on http://code.google.com/p/prosody-modules - these 
ones are not compatible with 0.8 (you will find a link to 0.8 compatible 
versions on the above page).

Hope this helps!
