              Building and Installing Emacs from Bazaar

+Building Emacs from Bazaar requires some tools that are not needed
+when building from a release.  You will need:
+
+autoconf  - at least the version specified near the start of
+  configure.ac (in the AC_PREREQ command).
+automake  - at least the version specified near the start of
+  configure.ac (in the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE command).
+makeinfo  - not strictly necessary, but highly recommended, so that
+  you can build the manuals.
+
+The `autogen.sh' script can help you figure out if you have the
+necessary tools.
+
+The first time you build, there are a couple of extra steps.
+First, generate the `configure' script and some related files:
+
+  $ ./autogen.sh
+
+(or you can just run `autoreconf -i -I m4').
+
+You can then configure your build (use `./configure --help' to see
+options you can set):
 
   $ ./configure
 
+If you want later builds to go faster, at the expense of sometimes
+doing the wrong thing if you update the build procedure, you can
+invoke "./configure -C" instead.

 Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
 byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in Bazaar.  Therefore, to
 build from Bazaar you must run "make bootstrap" instead of just "make":
