# NOTE: This migrator is made for Joomla 1.5 databases.
# NOTE: This converter requires Sequel and the MySQL gems.
# The MySQL gem can be difficult to install on OS X. Once you have MySQL
# installed, running the following commands should work:
# $ sudo gem install sequel
# $ sudo gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
