-Installing libSIDPlay2
-======================
-NOTICE! The upstream libSIDPlay2 has several bugs in build
-scripts, which botch up building on some non-mainstream
-platforms, such as NetBSD and Solaris. I personally provide
-fixed versions of libSIDPlay2, reSID and reSID-builder
-packages. Therefore I highly recommend that you use the
-fixed versions I provide on XMMS-SID's homepage (see above).
-
-
-NOTICE #2! Under Solaris you may run into a linking problem,
-because of a bug in GCC's libtool, please read following
-mailing list thread for more information:
-
-http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool/2005-08/msg00021.html
-
-
-As the installation procedure of libSIDPlay2 is not completely
-transparent or simple, I describe here the steps how to do it
-(hopefully) in a succesful manner:
-
-1) Get libSIDPlay2, reSID and reSID-builder packages.
-
-2) Build reSID (you may need to invoke 'gmake' instead of 'make'):
-
-   tar -xzvf resid-0.16.2-ccr.tar.gz
-   cd resid-0.16.2-ccr
-   ./configure
-   make
-
-   There is no need to do "make install", just leave the
-   build directory intact, you will need the contents when
-   compiling reSID-builder below.
-
-3) Build libSIDPlay2 similarly, but this time do install.
-   Untar the package as usual and ...
-
-   ./configure
-   make
-   make install
-
-   You have to do "make install" as root.
-
-4) Build reSID-builder in similar manner, but with specific
-   configure parameters. As usual, untar the package and ...
-
-   ./configure --with-resid=/path/to/resid-0.16.2-ccr
-   make
-   make install
-
-   NOTE! Obviously you have to change the /path/to/ the
-   correct location where you compiled the reSID-package.
-
-5) If all went well and without errors, you now should have
-   libSIDPlay2 installed with reSID software SID emulation
-   backend.
