Git repository
==============
BE is available as a Git repository::
$ git clone git://gitorious.org/be/be.git be
See the homepage_ for details. If you do branch the Git repo, you'll
need to run::
$ make
to build some auto-generated files (e.g. :mod:`libbe._version`), and::
$ make install
to install BE. By default BE will install into your home directory,
but you can tweak the ``PREFIX`` variable in ``Makefile`` to install
to another location.

Release tarballs
================
For those not interested in the cutting edge, or those who don't want
to worry about installing Git, we'll post release tarballs somewhere
(once we actually make a release). After you've downloaded the
release tarball, unpack it with::
$ tar -xzvf be-<VERSION>.tar.gz
And install it with:::
$ cd be-<VERSION>
$ make install
Distribution packages
=====================
Some distributions (Debian_ , Ubuntu_ , others?) package BE. If
you're running one of those distributions, you can install the package
with your regular package manager. For Debian, Ubuntu, and related
distros, that's::
$ apt-get install bugs-everywhere
However, the official packages can lag behind current development.
