Try as I might I am not able to get any apps into horde.  I assume
this is to do with the edit to the install_dev.conf right at the
beginning of the process.  Here's what I entered there (it would have
been really nice if there were an example in the file).


// The list of apps to create symlinks for
$apps = array(horde, imp, kronolith, turba, mnemo, nag, passwd);

Googling hasn't helped.  And all the app pages redirect back to
http://www.horde.org/development/git for installing from git
instructions.

Will I need to commit all these file and permission changes at least
to my local repository?

Thanks.
