	==========
	DISCLAIMER
	==========

This is not very well packaged code.  It's not packaged at all.  Don't
come here expecting something you plop in a directory, twiddle a few
things, and you're off and using it.  Work has to be done to get
there.  We'd like to get there, but it wasn't clear when that would
be, and so we decided to let people see it first.



	============
	INSTALLATION
	============

(This section stolen heavily from the Bonsai INSTALL document.  It's
also probably incomplete.  "We're accepting patches", especially to
this document!)

First, you need some other things:

   1) MySQL database server.
   2) Tcl 7.6
   3) TclX 7.6
   4) mysqltcl program (hmm.. This was tricky.. Read on)
   5) Some kind of HTTP server so you could use CGI scripts

1.1 Getting and setting up MySQL database

   Visit MySQL homepage at http://www.tcx.se and grab the latest
stable binary release of the server. Sure, you can get sources and
compile them yourself, but binaries are the easiest and the fastest
way to get it up and running. Follow instructions found in
manual. There is a section about installing binary-only
distributions. 

   You should create database "bugs". It may be a good idea to make it
writable by all users on your machine and change access level
later. This would save you a lot of time trying to guess whether it's
permissions or a mistake in the script that make things fail.

1.2-3 Getting and building Tcl & TclX 7.6

    Tcl homepage is at http://www.scriptics.com. You may get sources
for UNIX from ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/tcl7_6/tcl7.6p2.tar.gz.
TclX is an extension for Tcl that adds a lot of useful functions that
are heavily used in the Bugzilla tool. 
TclX page is http://www.neosoft.com/tclx. Download sources from
ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/TclX/tclX7.6.0.tar.gz. Watch out for the
case of the letters in URL. These guys are going to bring some fun
into your life by spelling their program name in various ways.

    Now you've probably got both Tcl and TclX 7.6. You may try to use
version 8.X but I'm not sure about results. Unfortunately I'm not an
expert in "Tcl&Co.".

    Build and install Tcl first. Then build and install TclX. This
should go without serious problems

1.4 mysqltcl - the tricky part

   Grab msqltcl 1.50 (yes, "msqltcl" without 'y'. That's not a typo) from
MySQL site's contributed software area (http://www.tcx.se/Contrib/) or
from mSQL site (www.hughes.com.au). I've used version 1.50 and it
works for me, though you may try more recent version at your own
risk. You're risking anyway. 

   Then grab mysqltcl.c-patch from MySQL's contrib area and apply this
patch to msqltcl.c file from msqltcl-1.50 distribution. 

   Try to make msqltcl binary which is in fact mYsqltcl already. Very
likely that you will not be able to compile it without modifications.
    
   You can use the patch in APPENDIX 1 to see what changes I had to make
to compile mysqltcl. Your mileage may vary.


1.5 HTTP server

You have a freedom of choice here - Apache, Netscape or any other
server on UNIX would do. The only thing - to make configuration easier
you'd better run HTTP daemon on the same machine that you run MySQL
server on. Make sure that you can access 'bugs' database with user
id you're running the daemon with.


2. TWEAKING THE TOOLS

   Now you should have all necessary tools to be able to run Bugzilla
and see why the wouldn't work for you right now. 

   First of all you have to change "#!/usr/bonsaitools" to wherever
you've installed your binaries in all executable scripts in Bugzilla
directories.


3. Setting up database

You should be run all six scripts named make*.sh.  This creates the
databases and populates them a teeny bit.
