Document Ubuntu dependencies somewhere #68

Closed orborde closed 9 years ago

orborde commented 9 years ago

James Salvatore and I were trying to get the scripts running tonight at ChiHackNight. We both run Ubuntu, and we discovered that you need to run the following before trying to use 00_Startup.R:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libxml2-dev

There may be other Ubuntu dependencies, too.

Maybe it would be helpful to mention the above dependencies in the README, or in comments in 00_Startup.R, so that future users will save time.

Ah yes, thanks. I think these are needed for devtools, which downloads packages from github. Perhaps RSocrata's dependency on httr uses them also.

@tomschenkjr I put in some new documentation and created a pull request from dev to master. If you accept it, would you also close this issue?

@geneorama Here is how you can auto-close. I'll take care of it on the merge.
