+Quick install guide:
+
+If the sources have been fetched from git, run bootstrap.sh [options].
+
+From a released source, use:
+1. Type './configure'
+2. Type 'make install'
+
+Generic configuration instructions are in the file INSTALL.
+
+The following 3rd-party libraries will be used by gd if found by configure.
+While gd will compile and install even without these, we suggest that at
+least zlib and libpng are installed, and recommend that freetype and jpeg
+are installed as well:
+
+1. zlib, available from http://www.gzip.org/zlib/
+ Data compression library
+
+2. libpng, available from http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/
+ Portable Network Graphics library; requires zlib
+
+3. FreeType 2.x, available from http://www.freetype.org/
+ Free, high-quality, and portable font engine
+
+4. JPEG library, available from http://www.ijg.org/
+ Portable JPEG compression/decompression library
+
+5. XPM, available from http://koala.ilog.fr/lehors/xpm.html
+ X Pixmap library
+
+If any of these libraries are installed, but not detected by configure,
+you can use the following command line options:
+
+--with-png=DIR
+
+ Without the DIR argument, configure will check for png header files and
+ libraries in a default location. To switch off png support, use
+ --without-png, or --with-png=no.
+
+ If the DIR argument is specified, configure tries to find the png header
+ files in DIR/include, and the libraries in DIR/lib. To accommodate
+ OpenBSD ports, DIR/include/libpng is also checked if necessary.
+
+--with-freetype=DIR
+
+ Dto. for freetype 2.x library. The search path for include files is
+ DIR/include/freetype2.
+
+--with-jpeg=DIR
+
+ Dto. for jpeg library.
+
+--with-xpm=DIR
+
+ Dto. for xpm library.
+
+ --with-tiff=DIR
+
+Dto. for TIFF library.
