 Installation
 ------------
 
-Some build options can be configured through 'conf-build'.  
-Read the comments in this file for more information. 
-
-* Building:
-
-a) Static libs:
-
-Execute
-
-     $ make
-
-which does the steps of './configure && make'. 
-Don't forget to make sure that libs and headers will be found by the compiler/linker.
-For convenience, link the current version of fehQlibs to qlibs
-
-     $ ln -s fehQlibs-XY qlibs
-
-b) Shared objects libs:
-
-You can also build dynamic libaries for qlibs and dnsresolv. After
-
-     $ make
-
-call 
-
-     $ make shared
-
-* Deployment:
-
-In case conf-build has been customized to include the location of
-
-- HDRDIR
-- LIBDIR
-
-issue 
-
-     $ make install
-
-to deploy the include files and libs at the given location.
-By default, for the libs the parent directory is used.
-
-* Verification:
-
-Check the ELFCLASS of the generated binaries in the source directory while calling
-
-     $ file open.o
-
-They need to comply with your OS. See 'conf-build' for options.
-
-* Resulting libraries:
-
-The following libraries are generated:
-
-- qlibs.a - static basic [w/o DNS] lib (linked to libqlibs.a)
-- dnsresolv.a - static DNS resolver lib (linked to libdnsresolv.a)
-
-and perhaps
-
-- libqlibs.so - dynamic, position independent (PIC) 'shared object' lib
-- libdnsresolv.so - dynamic, position independent (PIC) 'shared object' lib
-
-These libs are of type ELF64 or ELF32 depending on the system.
-
-Use 'ar -t' to get the included members of the static libs.
-Use 'nm' to view the members and symbols of the libs.
-
-The shared object libs are known NOT not work on MacOS.
-
-
-Man pages
----------
-
-In the ./man directory the current man pages for the basic qlibs routines are included.
-Determine the current $mandir and (as root) install the man pages:
-
-     $ cp *.3 $mandir/man3/
+Check the INSTALL.md document.

 stralloc.h is decoupled from genalloc.h (to be included separately).
 This respects the GCC 10 compilation unit behavior.
