- <para>The installation of all the software is pretty straightforward and
- you will probably think it's so much easier and shorter to give the generic
- installation instructions for each package and only explain how to
- install something if a certain package requires an alternate installation
- method. Although I agree on that, I choose to give the
- full instructions for each and every package. This is simply to avoid any
- possible confusion and errors.</para>
- <para>Now would be a good time to take a look at the optimization hint at <ulink
- url="&hints-root;optimization.txt">&hints-root;optimization.txt</ulink>
- if you plan on using compiler optimization for the packages
- installed in the following chapter. Compiler optimization can make a program run
- faster, but may also cause some compilation problems. If you run into problems
- after having used optimization, always try it without optimizing to see if you
- can reproduce the problem.</para>
