Some hints about the Hermes installation...


The Hermes Baselibs:
===================

the hermes command line tools. They also can be used by clients to
post messages not over http but directly into the hermes database.
Direct access to the database and database credentials must be 
available for that.

Dependencies:
- perl
  perl Modules:
    Name                    SUSE Package Name
 +------------------------+----------------------------------------
   Html-Template            perl-HTML-Template
   Data::Dumper             perl-base
   DBI                      perl-DBI

   MIME::Lite               perl-MIME-Lite
   XML::RSS                 -no openSUSE package yet-
   Net::Twitter             perl-Net-Twitter
   JSON::DWIW               perl-JSON-DWIW
   JSON::Any                perl-JSON-Any
   Cache::Memcached         perl-Cache-Memcached
