    17 To use this package, first clone the Symbian build tools
       
    18 repository from //http://developer.symbian.org/oss/MCL/sftools/dev/build. To be
       
    19 sure of getting the latest sources with which this package has been tested,
       
    20 clone the repository at changeset number be27ed110b50, i.e.
       
    21 
       
    22 $ hg clone -r be27ed110b50 http://developer.symbian.org/oss/MCL/sftools/dev/build
       
    23 
       
    24 I assume you clone the repository at ~/somewhere/sftools/dev/build.
       
    25 
       
    26 Then from the directory containing this file, copy the Makefile and the directory
       
    27 'makefiles-garage' into ~/somewhere/sftools/dev/build.
       
    28 
       
    29 Then:
       
    30 
       
    31 $ cd ~/somewhere/sftools/dev/build
       
    32 $ make help
       
    33 
       
    34 Study the help, then:
       
    35 
       
    36 $ make
       
    37 
       
    38 This package is work in progress. Right now, it only makes a subset of the
       
    39 tools libraries and executables. It does make any tools exports or any kind of install.
