-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
+If you checked out from the git repository (as opposed to downloading a
+tarball), you need to run autogen.sh instead of configure:
 
-For imake:
-	$ xmkmf -a
+	$ ./autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
 
-These should both generate valid Makefiles, in either case:
+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.
