==================== 0. Change to a directory with enough (0.8 GB) free space ==================== I have not checked, but the 0.8GB seem to include the whole build, right? ==================== 1. Fetch sources :: git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/fricas/fricas cd fricas Remove the ``--depth 1`` option for access to the change history. ==================== Is the ``--depth 1 really important to you? When I clone with depth 1 the size is 5.877.760 ./.git 31.539.200 . without --depth the disk size is 20.582.400 ./.git 46.243.840 . compared to what is generated later. The whole history is less than all checked out files. Those 15 MB are negligible (also compared to the size of the build). ==================== 2. Create build directory and change to it :: mkdir ax-build cd ax-build ===================== Do you want people to do the build inside a subdirectory of the git-repository? Why do you call it "ax-..." and not "fricas-build"? I am more in favour of giving a concrete directory here something like /PATH/TO/FRICAS and /PATH/TO/FRICAS-BUILD (possibly putting it into variables F and B, because calling "./configure" would not work inside "ax-build", "$F/configure" would. Anyway, I have changed ax-build t fricas-build. Since I do not have "." in my PATH, also calling "configure" will not work even in in-tree-builds. I've added your modifications (with slight changes) https://github.com/hemmecke/fricas/blob/wip/rstdoc/src/doc/sphinx/source/install.rst Rendered version is here: https://hemmecke.github.io/fricas/install.html I'll look into generating a plain text INSTALL file from install.rst later.
