Details

http://socorro.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation/deps.html lists requirements for building Socorro, we don't need nearly as much for just installing packages. Long-term this list could live in the package itself, but then we'll need to think about "requires" versus "recommends", etc (we don't want to require postgres be installed on every server the Socorro RPM is installed on for instance).
We really need to just further separate the "install package" and "install from source" documentation. People are getting hung up right now installing a bunch of dev packages, and getting confused and thinking they need to do steps from the "install from source" when really they should be using the package.
We have gotten a lot of mileage out of a single requirements.txt
