-system.
+This directory (and the resulting tarball) contains a build tree with
+examples, Makefiles, etc that demonstrate how to write signal
+processing blocks for the GNU Radio system. This directory is
+intentionally distributed separately from the unified tarball of the
+rest of GNU Radio in order to avoid problems for people who have begun
+to write blocks with a modified copy of gr-howto-write-a-block.
+
+This package requires that gnuradio-core is already installed. It
+also depends on some GNU Radio prerequisites, such as Boost and
+cppunit.
To build the examples from the tarball use the normal recipe:
$ make
$ make check
-If you're building from CVS, you'll need to use this sequence, since
-CVS doesn't contain configure or the generated Makefiles.
+If you're building from git, you'll need to use this sequence, since
+git doesn't contain configure or the generated Makefiles.
$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check

-The doc directory is not built by default. This is to avoid spurious
-build problems on systems that don't have xmlto installed. If you
-have xmlto and its dependencies installed, you can build the html
-version of the howto article by cd'ing to doc and invoking make.
