[Qgis-developer] error running qgis master - sextante depends on psycopg2 - but this dependency isn't well known

[Etienne Tourigny]

Ideally it could be a dependency to .deb files (or osgeo/whatever),
and the build notes could include that package.

In any case, perhaps a one-time error window with a QErrorMessage that
psycopg2 is needed for some algorithms.
