+To compile svn-fast-export.c, use make. You'll need to install
+some packages first using the package manager on your OS:
+
+* libsvn-dev - the Subversion libraries
+* libapr1-dev - the Apache Portable Runtime libraries
+
+Note: If someone with good knowledge of the Subversion
+Python bindings could rewrite svn-fast-export.py so that
+https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-fastimport/+bug/273361
+went away, then there would be much rejoicing throughout
+the land and the need for svn-fast-export.c would largely
+disappear.
