Description

Folks,
The Server installation doc here: https://pulp.readthedocs.org/en/latest/user-guide/installation.html#server misses the required package "qpid-tools". This becomes apparent when one attempts to initialize the Pulp Mongo database:

Halting migrations due to a migration failure.
Migration 0009 did not run because the python package qpidtoollibs is not installed. Please install qpidtoollibs and rerun the migrations. See http://pulp-user-guide.readthedocs.org/en/2.4-release/troubleshooting.html#qpidtoollibs-is-not-installed for more information.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Unfortunately the link provided in the error (a practice new users like myself greatly appreciate, btw!) is stale and points to 2.4 troubleshooting docs that I have observed won't fix RHEL 7. The "/latest/" docs do however provide the correct guidance on fixing the issue (install qpid-tools).

So I guess my request is kind of twofold:
1. Update the docs to have the user install qpid-tools if using RHEL
2. Update the Pulp source code to use the "/latest/" doc link that provides the fix for this issue: https://pulp.readthedocs.org/en/latest/user-guide/troubleshooting.html#qpidtoollibs-is-not-installed

Thanks a bunch!
