+Build Instructions for installation of Browser-PoC on Ubuntu 12.04
+==================================================================
+
+If your target is to build GENIVI's Browser Proof-of-Concept on Ubuntu
+12.04 LTS, then these instructions may help you through the build
+process. The build process is slightly different if you're using
+Ubuntu's version of Qt 5.
+
+System requirements
+-------------------
+
+Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
+
+To get a later version of Qt on Ubuntu 12.04, which was released
+nearly two years ago, you can use the Ubuntu provided SDK for Qt
+available as a PPA.[1] The easiest way to do this is to add to 
+/etc/apt/sources.list these two lines;
+
+ deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa/ubuntu precise main 
+ deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa/ubuntu precise main 
+
+Alternatively Ubuntu puts PPAs in the sources.list.d directory so you
+can put those two lines in a file called
+/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-sdk-team-ppa-precise.list
+and then run;
+
+$ sudo apt-get update
+$ sudo apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev
+
+The above commands install the headers / libraries necessary for
+development with Qt and QML.
