+  note : For Fedora users : this might require at least core 3 from Fedora,
+  or you might have to compile your own GTK2 library.

+
+* Source Tree Structure
+
+Here is the tree structure of the Linux Trace Toolkit Viewer package.
+
+ltt: new trace format reading library.
+README: This file.
+debian: debian config files (currently empty).
+doc:    Documentation.
+doc/user:      User related documentation.
+doc/developer: Developer related documentation.
+lttv:   Linux Trace Toolkit trace analysis tool and viewer.
+lttv/modules:  Linux Trace Toolkit analysis tool and viewer plugin modules.
+specs:  RPM config files (currently empty).
+
+
+* For Developers
+
+This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
+portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
+compile the subversion repository tree :
+
+
+GNU autotools (automake-1,7, autoconf2.50, autoheader2.50)
+(make sure your system wide "automake" points to version 1.7!)
+GNU Libtool
+(for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
+
+If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
+script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
