(C<Bugzilla::Hook> needs to have those modules installed--it's +a chicken-and-egg problem.) + +So instead of the way hooks normally work, this hook just looks for two +subroutines (or constants, since all constants are just subroutines) in +your file, called C<OPTIONAL_MODULES> and C<REQUIRED_MODULES>, +which should return arrayrefs in the same format as C<OPTIONAL_MODULES> and +C<REQUIRED_MODULES> in L<Bugzilla::Install::Requirements>. + +These subroutines will be passed an arrayref that contains the current +Bugzilla requirements of the same type, in case you want to modify +Bugzilla's requirements somehow. (Probably the most common would be to +alter a version number or the "feature" element of C<OPTIONAL_MODULES>.) + +F<checksetup.pl> will add these requirements to its own. + +Please remember--if you put something in C<REQUIRED_MODULES>, then +F<checksetup.pl> B<cannot complete> unless the user has that module +installed!
