+Basic Installation
+==================
+
+
+KPilot uses the CMake build system which is the native build system
+for KDE4; for KDE3 applications like KPilot, CMake is also useable.
+You need CMake installed on your system to compile KPilot, but CMake
+is becoming more widespread now. You can get it from www.cmake.org .
+
+First configure KPilot by running
+
+ ./configure [options]
+
+If you run configure with no options it will tell you which ones
+are available; you *must* provide at least one for configure to
+work. A most-vanilla configure looks like this:
+
+ ./configure --enable-tests=no
+
+Suggested options are at least:
+
+ ./configure --enable-debug=yes --enable-tests=yes
+
+You may need to specify a prefix or a location where pilot-link
+is installed; run ./configure --show for a summary of options.
+
+Once configure is done, compile KPilot, by running
+
+ make -f Makefile.cmake
+
+in the KPilot source directory (that is the one containing this
+INSTALL file). This will run CMake to generate the real Makefiles,
+then run make again to build the project in a build-* subdirectory.
+Once it is done, you can run
+
+ make -f Makefile.cmake install
+
+to install KPilot in the KDE directory.
+
+
+
+
+Advanced Installation
+=====================
+
+In order to build KPilot somewhere else, or if the sources are on
+read-only media, use CMake directly instead of using the basic
+Makefile included with KPilot. To do this,
+ 1) Create a build directory somewhere
+ 2) cd into that build directory
+ 3) Run cmake /path/to/kpilot/sources
+ 4) Run make
+
+In order to install KPilot somewhere else, use -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX .
