Comment (by jdemeyer):

 The "{{{Special Update/Build Instructions}}}" are quite unclear to me. I'm
 trying to update the package to GAP-4.5.7 but it's difficult to understand
 what all this means:
 {{{
 This is a stripped-down version of GAP.  The databases, which are arch
 independent, are in a separate package and doc and tests are removed.

 ** IMPORTANT **:
    When you update this package, be sure to put the guava package
    in the package directory!!

 DATABASES (separated out to database_gap.spkg) except GAPDoc which is
 required:
   rm -rf small prim trans
   cd pkg
   rm -rf !(GAPDoc*)

 Stuff that isn't GAP sources:
   rm -rf bin/*
   cd extern
   rm -rf !Makefile.in
 }}}
