+########################################################################
The installation procedure should be quite simple:
1) ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
or any other options (try --help)
+
If you have difficulties building on FreeBSD, try --disable-nls.
+
2) make install
+ This installs the software and documentation into the proper
+ directories on your system. If you want to use your system's
+ package system instead, follow a) or b) instead.
+
+ a) make rpm
+
+ If you're running a RPM based system (e.g. Redhat Linux or SuSE
+ Linux), you can build RPM packages and install these. The
+ packages will be located in packaging/rpm/RPMS/.
+
+ b) make deb
+
+ (This is not implemented yet)
+ If you're running a DEB based system (e.g. Debian GNU/Linux),
+ you can build .deb packages and install these. The packages will
+ be located in FIXME.
