[wp-hackers] Using dependency on plugins

[Pete Mall]

Use the activation hook to check for the other plugin and then hook into
admin notices to display a nag with a link to install the missing plugin.
Alternatively, you can always check for the other plugin and display a nag
if is_admin() and die gracefully if not is_admin().
