+ SQLite can be quite faster than PostgreSQL (for reference see SQLite
+ site: http://www.hwaci.com/sw/sqlite/speed.html). Since WebPAC doesn't
+ use advanced database facilities of PostgreSQL you would probably be
+ better off with SQLite if you don't have PostgreSQL already installed.
+
+ If you are using SQLite, there is no need to specify dbi_user or dbi_pass.
+ So, just leave them like this:
+
+ dbi_user=""
+ dbi_passwd=""
+
+ If you specify dbi_user and than try to index using different user,
+ you won't be able to write into database.
+
+2. Use CPAN shell to install modules used:
+
+ $ sudo cpan
+ cpan> install module_name
+
+ Modules which are needed:
+
+ Text::Unaccent version 1.02 or higher, you might need
+ to get this one from
+ http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/unac/
+ Config::IniFiles
+ DBD::Pg or some other DBD driver like DBD::SQLite
+ CGI::Application
+ HTML::Template
+ HTML::FillInForm
+ SWISH::API
+ XML::Simple
+ Text::Iconv
+ GDBM_File
+ HTML::Entities (part of HTML::Parser)
+
+ CPAN shell will also download some more modules to satisfy dependencies.
+
+
+ If you plan to use M$ Excel files for import (type=excel), you will need:
+
+ Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
+
+ If you plan to use import from MARC files you will also need
+
+ MARC::Record
+
+
+2.1 Installation on Debian GNU/Linux
+
+ You will need following packages to get started:
+
+ perl
+ swish-e
+
+ and all additional packages which are dependencies.
+
+ You also don't have to install all CPAN modules manually. Just use
+ following Debian packages:
+
+ libtext-unaccent-perl
+ libconfig-inifiles-perl
+ libdbd-pg-perl or some other DBD driver
+ libdbd-sqlite-perl like DBD::SQLite
+ libhtml-template-perl
+ libxml-simple-perl
+ libtext-iconv-perl
+ libhtml-parser-perl
+
+ and install following packages by hand from CPAN
+ because they are not part of Debian distribution:
+
+ CGI::Application
+ HTML::FillInForm
+ SWISH::API
+
+ and optionally some of those modules:
+
+ Spreadsheet::ParseExcel
+ MARC::Record
+
+3. You will need also IsisDB module if you are using ISIS as an import format.
+ Currenlty, this module is available only from development site
+
+ http://svn.rot13.org/
+
+ but, it should be available also through CPAN (meaning that it's stable and
+ tested). So, just try to install IsisDB using cpan first.
+
+ WebPAC doesn't use OpenIsis anymore.
+
+4. Edit global.conf and all2xml.conf to suit your needs. Comments inside
+ those files should help get you started.
