+
+== Build notes:
+Shared builds are not recommended, since system versions of thirdparty
+libraries are not always known to be free of problems. The build
+will use known (perhaps patched) libraries if built statically.
+
+The amount of time needed for the build is decreased by adding more
+build jobs via --with-jobs=#, the default is 1.5*mach cpus + 2 jobs.
+eg. --with-jobs=12
+
+There are several packages which are "forced" either because they
+vary widely between systems, or are buggy and have patches in the build.
+
+Using disable-pkg means that the static build is not used, and a system
+library will be used to replace it.
+eg. --disable-giflib
+
+Using without-feature means that the feature is omitted from cinelerra.
+eg. --without-firewire
