-I ran into a problem when installing from svn.  I got "invalid variable
-interpolation" errors for Wrappers.pm.  I added the flag '--extract-all' to
-'po/Makefile' and 'po/t' to the xgettext line.  Once I did that I was able
-to make and make test just fine. --HarleyPig

-> It would be helpful if you could post the actual error message you saw.
-> Also would be nice to know what versions of perl and gettext you have.
-> Perhaps your xgettext is an older version from before it natively
-> supported perl.
-> Adding --extract-all doesn't seem like a good idea, since this causes it
-> to treat every string in the entire wiki as translatable. I don't know
-> what you're talking about regarding 'po/t'. --[[Joey]]

-I have just installed ikiwiki and it works - at least I have the example index.mdwn page
-compiled and visible.  However I have a few issues/problems:-
-
-* A couple of the 'optional' Perl modules aren't optional, you can't install ikiwiki without them,
-these are HTML::Template and HTML::Scrubber (at least I think it was these two, it's a bit messy 
-to go back and find out).
-
-> You're right, HTML::Template is required. HTML::Scrubber is only required
-> in the default configuration, and is optional if the htmlscrubber plugin
-> is disabled. --[[Joey]]
-
-* I don't seem to have got an ikiwiki man page created.
-
-> It should be installed in /usr/share/man, or a similar directory
-> depending on how your perl is set up and how you did the install.
-> --[[Joey]]
-
-> Found it, in /usr/local/share/man, since no other man pages are in either /usr/share/man or in /usr/local/share/man the ikiwiki
-> man page is a bit lonely, and more to the point not on my MANPATH.  Still I have found it now, I'll just move it to somewhere
-> more sensible. [[Chris]]
-
-* Running "ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup" doesn't do anything.  I have edited ikiwiki.setup to
-my local settings.  There are no errors but neither does anything get compiled.  An ikiwiki
-command to explicitly do the compile works fine.  Am I misunderstanding something here?
-
-> Further tests indicate that ikiwiki isn't seeing changed files so doesn't always rebuild.
-> How does ikiwiki decide when to rebuild?  I tried a full command line like "ikiwiki --verbose ikiwiki ~/public_html/ikiwiki --url=http://www.isbd.ltd.uk/~chris/ikiwiki/" and that doesn't do anything
-either though it was the command line I originally used to compile.  After a long interval I 'touch'ed 
-the files and then it *did* compile but 'touch'ing the files after a few minutes only doesn't seem to force a recompile.  I'm even more confused!
-
-> ikiwiki only compiles files whose modification times have changed. It
-> should see any change made as close as a second after the last compile.
-> When run with --setup, ikiwiki always rebuilds every file in the wiki. If
-> --setup is not working, you must have it pointed at the wrong path or
-> something; you can pass -v to see what it's doing. I don't know why it
-> would not see recently changed files; you could try stracing it.
-> --[[Joey]]
-
-> OK, thanks, I don't quite know what was happening before but it seems to be working right now.
-> --[[Chris]]
-
->> Weird. I wish I knew what happened, but as it's working now, I'm
->> guessing some kind of user error was involved. --[[Joey]]
-
-* I wish there was a mailing list, much easier for this sort of stuff than this, apart from
-anything else I get to use a decent editor.
