 To compile GPT fdisk, you must have appropriate development tools
 installed, most notably the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and its g++
-compiler for C++. The sgdisk program also requires the popt library and its
-development files (headers). Most Linux distributions install popt by
-default, but you may need to install a package called popt-dev, popt-devel,
-or something similar to obtain the header files. Mac OS users can find a
-version of popt for Mac OS from http://popt.darwinports.com; however,
-you'll first need to install DarwinPorts (instructions exist on the
-preceding page). Alternatively, you can compile gdisk alone, without
-sgdisk; gdisk doesn't require popt.

 When all the necessary development tools and libraries are installed, you
 can uncompress the package and type "make" at the command prompt in the
-resulting directory. The result should be program files called gdisk and
-sgdisk. Typing "make gdisk" or "make sgdisk" will compile only the requested
-programs. You can use these programs in place or copy the files to a
