7.0.0 Beta 1 - Install Typos

Post by Jacob Klein »

1) This new dialog, says "Refert". It should say "Refer".
2) It's also confusing that it says "must do x first" then instructs to "do x later". Shouldn't it not say "must do x first", if it isn't a "must do first"?

The typo was already fixed before the Beta became public, but still quite a few hours after the build. Thanks for the feedback, we'll check this new message in the installer (it's just more explicit than before, it was previously doing the same just without being as detailed).

I'll bet throwing an "automatically" in the first part would clear up the ambiguity: "Installing the Oracle.... Python Bindings automatically requires..."

Roughly speaking, it means, "If you don't have X installed first so we can set up Y automatically now, you'll have to manually set up Y yourself later. Proceed anyway?"
