+The following outlines how to install glabels from source on various GNU/Linux distributions.
+</p>
+
+
+<h2>Prerequisites</h2>
+
+<p>
+Dependencies will need to be installed as root.
+Although dependecies can be installed using your distribution's graphical package manager, the directions below use command line tools because it is easier to convey.
+</p>
+
+<h4>Fedora and similar distributions</h4>
+<div class="codebox">$ su
+Password:
+# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
+# yum groupinstall "GNOME Software Development"
+</div>

+<h4>Ubuntu and similar distributions</h4>

+$ sudo apt-get install libebook1.2-dev <i>(optional)</i>
+</div>
+
+<p>
+The exact dependencies and their names may vary with different distributions and versions.  There may also be additional dependencies depending on the baseline configuation of your distribution.  If <tt>./configure</tt> in the following step complains, you may need to return to this step and install additional dependencies.
+</p>
+
+
+<h2>Unpack and Build</h2>
+
+<p>This step should not vary with distribution.</p>

+<div class="codebox">$ tar xvfz glabels-2.2.x.tar.gz
+$ cd glabels-2.2.x
+$ ./configure
+$ make
