************ Note for those who don't bother reading docs *************** |
| 13 |
* - Reading INSTALL is now a must, as the old DPATH is now specified * |
| 14 |
* when configure is run. * |
| 15 |
* You now need to ./configure --prefix="/path/to/install/it" * |
| 16 |
* - The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see doc/example.conf ! * |
| 17 |
* - The old kline, dline, xline format WILL NOT WORK. * |
| 18 |

ALSO, IF YOU ARE UPGRADING YOUR CURRENT SOURCE TREE, AND YOU TRY TO BUILD |
| 21 |
IN IT WITHOUT PERFORMING AT LEAST 'make clean', THINGS _WILL_ BREAK. IT IS |
| 22 |
RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RUN 'make distclean' AND THEN RERUN './configure'! |
