+If you are building from Subversion, run the script
+
+./autogen.sh
+
+first, to make sure that you have all the necessary maintainer tools
+are installed and to build the actual configuration files. If you
+have just updated from SVN, you should add the option "--force" to
+autogen.sh so that meta data from SVN is noticed. Then run
+
+./configure --enable-maintainer-mode
+
+followed by the usual make.
+
+If autogen.sh complains about insufficient versions of the required
+tools, or the tools are not installed, you may use environment
+variables to override the default tool names:
+
+ AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the automake
+ package. For example
+ AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX="-1.7" ./autogen.sh
+ uses "automake-1.7" and "aclocal-1.7.
+ AUTOMAKE_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the automake
+ page and may be combined with AUTOMAKE_SUFFIX. e.g.:
+ AUTOMAKE_PREFIX=/usr/foo/bin ./autogen.sh
+ uses "automake" and "aclocal" in the /usr/foo/bin
+ directory.
+ AUTOCONF_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the automake
+ package
+ AUTOCONF_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the automake
+ package
+ GETTEXT_SUFFIX is used as a suffix for all tools from the gettext
+ package
+ GETTEXT_PREFIX is used as a prefix for all tools from the gettext
+ package
+
+It is also possible to use the variable name AUTOMAKE, AUTOCONF,
+ACLOCAL, AUTOHEADER, GETTEXT and MSGMERGE to directly specify the name
+of the programs to run. It is however better to use the suffix and
+prefix forms as described above because that does not require
+knowledge about the actual tools used by autgen.sh.
+
+
+Please don't use autopoint, libtoolize or autoreconf unless you are
+the current maintainer and want to update the standard configuration
+files. All those files should be in the SVN and only updated manually
+if the maintainer decides that newer versions are required. The
+maintainer should also make sure that the required version of automake
+et al. are properly indicated at the top of configure.ac and take care
+to copy the files and not merely use symlinks.
