+Compiling from source
+---------------------
+
+### Installing library dependencies:
+# The easiest and recommended way is to use your package manager to install
+# all build dependencies for the drizzle package. This will always
+# install an up to date list of dependencies.
+# If drizzle is not yet included in your distribution, then please configure
+# your package manager to use these Drizzle repositories:
+#  DEB: http://docs.drizzle.org/installing/ubuntu.html
+#  RPM: http://docs.drizzle.org/installing/redhat.html
+
+
+# Then start the build process with executing
+sudo apt-get build-dep drizzle
+# or
+yum-builddep drizzle
+
+### Compiling:
 # If you got the source from bzr, run:
 ./config/autorun.sh
 # The following steps are the same regardless of where you got the source
