592517 - Support adding required add-ons to add-ons

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Developer Pages, defect, P2)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

This might be a dupe of a really old bug, but the new design allows developers to specify other add-ons that are required to run the displayed add-on.  We don't offer any kind of enforcement of having them installed, this is simply a backend bug to associate the add-ons and provide the front end a way to see that association.

bug 248359 in fact

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

This is just adding a many-many table.  The CRUD for the table is a different bug, so this is quick.

Is there a bug for showing the dependencies on the UI?
Is there a companion bug for the application(s) to show/install the dependencies?

Comment 5

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

There are no front end bugs yet, afaik, but I think there are some mockups floating around which I will track down.  The backend bug is bug 592547.
