6 == Notes ==
7
8 * You must install the `binutils`, `gcc`, and `make` packages. You
9 can find out how to get these at
10 http://www.sunfreeware.com[sunfreeware.com].
11
12 * Making the documentation requires that you install `latex` and
13 `dvips`, which are available in the `tetex` package.

15 == Known issues ==
16
17 * Bootstrapping on the <:RunningOnSparc:Sparc architecture> is so slow
18 as to be impractical (many hours on a 500MHz UltraSparc). For this
19 reason, we strongly recommend building with a
20 <:CrossCompiling:cross compiler>.
