The ​latest documentation still recommends copying mediagoblin.ini to mediagoblin_local.ini. This is now deprecated as we no longer ship mediagoblin.ini, and we instead recommend copying mediagoblin.example.ini to mediagoblin.ini. The documentation should be updated to reflect this.

The deployment docs are a little out of date and need a full review. See docs/source/siteadmin/deploying.rst.

For Debian 10, we can refer to the Dockerfile-debian-python3-sqlite script, which installs and runs MediaGoblin in Debian 10 under Docker.

For Fedora, we may want to make another Dockerfile to allow us to quickly verify that we have the list of dependencies correct.

GMG needs

• webob >= 1.1
• sqlalchemy >= 0.7

Those gave enough trouble the last days.

Maybe there should be some check_deps() which checks the dependencies at startup time? Maybe there is some format that setup.py and check_deps() can share?
