-The configuration files (fonts.conf, fonts.dtd) go in a new directory
-/etc/fonts, the install step doesn't current create this directory or copy
-the config files.
+Fontconfig is built with the traditional configure script:
+
+       $ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
+
+If you checked out from the git repository (as opposed to downloading a
+tarball), you need to run autogen.sh instead of configure:
+
+       $ ./autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
+
+Either way, that should generate valid Makefiles, then:
+
+       $ make
+       $ make install
+
+If you're going to package fontconfig for release, there are several
+important steps:
+
+ 1.    Create new version
+               sh new-version.sh 2.xx.xx
+               
+ 2.    rebuild the configuration files with autogen.sh
+               ./autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --localstatedir=/var
+               
+ 3.    make distcheck
+ 
+ 4.    Copy ChangeLog-2.x.y and fontconfig-2.x.y.tar.gz to
+ 
+               freedesktop.org:/srv/fontconfig.freedesktop.org/www/release
+       
+ 5.    Update the Fontconfig Devel wiki page
+       http://fontconfig.org/wiki/Devel
+       
+ 6.    Update the fontconfig documentation
+
+               scp -rp doc/fontconfig-user.html doc/fontconfig-devel fontconfig.org:/srv/fontconfig.freedesktop.org/www
+
+ 7.    Compute md5sums for release files:
+               md5sum fontconfig-2.4.x.tar.gz ChangeLog-2.4.x
+               
+ 8.    Post a note to fontconfig@fontconfig.org.  Include the md5sums.
+       gpg sign the message.
