Hopefully they will soon be released with downloadable tarballs and packaged
in common distros. For now, you'll have to make do with svn checkouts.
+ Some of NetSurf's own libraries will be installed in /usr/local/ by default.
+ Fedora, and perhaps some other distributions of Linux, do not ship a
+ pkg-config that will search here, so you will either need to change where
+ these libraries install, or do the following before building NetSurf itself;
+
+ $ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/pkgconfig
+ $ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
Package installation
