All bugs reported for previous test releases have been fixed. Some bugs surely remain. -For building and installation instructions, see the file INSTALL. +For general building and installation instructions, see the file INSTALL. +If you need to build GNU Make and have no other `make' program to use, +you can use the shell script `build.sh' instead. To do this, first run +`configure' as described in INSTALL. Then, instead of typing `make' to +build the program, type `sh build.sh'. This should compile the program +in the current directory. Then you will have a Make program that you can +use for `make install', or whatever else. See the file NEWS for what has changed since previous releases. GNU Make is fully documented in make.texinfo. See the section entitled -`Bugs' for information on submitting bug reports. +`Problems and Bugs' for information on submitting bug reports. GNU Make is free software.
