Summary
We will make it easier to install Moodle in Edubuntu as a content server for educators. We will reduce the number of installation questions and create a [meta]package to handle all the dependencies.
Release Note
Installing Moodle will be easier in Hardy because the edubuntu-content-server* package handles all the heavy lifting!
Rationale
The moodle package was added to main for gutsy, but it still has some rough edges. (For example, the postgres or mysql server package must have been installed manually beforehand for the moodle package installation to work properly without further manual configuration.) These rough edges need to be smoothed out so that Ubuntu system administrators will use the supported ubuntu package[s] to install their Moodle systems.
Use Cases
Assumptions
Design
You can have subsections that better describe specific parts of the issue.
Implementation
This section should describe a plan of action (the "how") to implement the changes discussed. Could include subsections like:
UI Changes
Should cover changes required to the UI, or specific UI that is required to implement this
Code Changes
We will modify the set of debconf questions to minimize what is asked by default, and we will create a metapackage with dependencies sufficient to set up a complete, working Moodle by installing only one package.
Migration
Include:
- data migration, if any
- redirects from old URLs to new ones, if any
- how users will be pointed to the new way of doing things, if necessary.
