+This package is identical to the IJG JPEG 6b release except that it
+uses a modern build system based on the latest autoconf, automake, and
+libtool. In fact, CVS versions of autoconf and libtool were used to
+create this package. Later versions of the package are likely to use
+released versions of autoconf and libtool.
+
+The package is produced by Bob Friesenhahn <bfriesen@GraphicsMagick.org>
+so that is where any bug reports pertaining to building this package
+should be sent to.
+
+An example build sequence for the package (should work for Linux, FreeBSD,
+and OSX) is:
+
+ tar -xzvf libjpeg-6b.tar.gz
+ cd libjpeg-6b
+ ./configure --prefix=/place/to/install
+ make
+ make check
+ sudo make install
+
+The package build has been verified to work for Windows MinGW/MSYS,
+Apple's OSX "Panther", and Sun's Solaris 9.
