Hello,

First of all, thanks for developing this plugin and taking the time to write such a thorough installation guide. I decided to pass along a couple of suggestions based on a recent Ubuntu 11.10 installation:

**sudoers**

Changes made to this file must be made at the very end of the file in Ubuntu; otherwise the line starting with "admin ..." negates the earlier changes.

**www-data user**

We found out that in our case, the user that was being used to invoke the Redmine process was actually our main user account that was used to install the Passenger mod. This can be determined by running:

>ps -Af | grep redmine

after Apache has been started. The user listed as owning the Redmine process is the one that needs to be used in place of all occurrences of "www-data" in the guide.

Also, no edits to the PATH were needed.

For reference, our base setup consisted of the following packages: lamp-server, ruby, passenger, and redmine 1.3 (manually, not synaptic).
