27For developers using the git tree:
28
29This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
30portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
31compile the git repository tree :
32
33- GNU autotools (automake >=1.10, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
34 (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
35- GNU Libtool >=2.2
36 (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
37
38If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the "bootstrap"
39script in the root of the tree. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the
40tree configuration.
