-You can build fontconfig with either autoconf or imake.
+Fontconfig is built with the traditional configure script:
 
-For autoconf:
+	$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
 
-	$ sh cvscompile.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr
-
-For imake:
-	$ xmkmf -a
-
-These should both generate valid Makefiles, in either case:
+This should generate valid Makefiles, then:
 
 	$ make
 	$ make install
 
+If you're going to package fontconfig for release, there are several
+important steps:
+
+ 1.	Update the version numbers
+ 		configure.in
+		fontconfig/fontconfig.h
+
+ 2.	Fix the README
+ 		Change version number
+		Set the date
+		Append the short log
+
+		git-log --pretty=short 2.4.xx | git-shortlog
+		
+ 3.	Commit those changes
+ 
+ 4. 	rebuild the configuration files with autogen.sh
+ 		sh autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --localstatedir=/var
+		
+ 5.	make distcheck (NB: won't work without docbook-utils -PL)
+ 
+ 6.	tag the tree
+ 		git-tag -u 096c4dd3 -m'Version 2.3.xx' 2.3.xx
+		
+ 7.	make Changelog-2.3.xx
+ 		git-log 2.3.(xx-1).. > ChangeLog-2.3.xx
+		
+ 8.	Copy ChangeLog-2.3.xx and fontconfig-2.3.xx.tar.gz to
+ 
+ 	freedesktop.org:/srv/fontconfig.freedesktop.org/www/release
+	
+ 9.	Update the Fontconfig Devel wiki page
+ 	http://fontconfig.org/wiki/Devel
+	
+10.	Compute md5sums for release files:
+		md5sum fontconfig-2.3.xx.tar.gz ChangeLog-2.3.xx
+		
+11.	Post a note to fontconfig@fontconfig.org.  Include the md5sums.
+	gpg sign the message.
