Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When installing the Oppia development server for Linux, the instructions do not fully list the packages that the user needs to install via pip install.

Describe the solution (or solutions) you'd like

The following packages need to be added to the installation instructions:

  • psutil
  • certifi
  • packaging
  • rcssmin
  • xmltodict
Additional context

I will happily fix this via PR. If approved to work on it, I will make the necessary changes to the relevant wiki pages, adding these packages to the relevant pip install lines.
