    <para>Install <application>Gperf</application> by running the following

<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --docdir=/usr/share/doc/gperf-&gperf-version; &amp;&amp;
make</userinput></screen>

<!--  gperf.texi is broken.  Fixing the texi file breaks 'make install'
      without TeXlive installed.
    <para>If desired, create a text version of the documentation by issuing
    the following command:</para>

<screen><userinput>makeinfo -o doc/gperf.txt - -plaintext doc/gperf.texi</userinput></screen>
-->

    <para>To test the results, issue: <command>make check</command>. There
    should be no output from the <command>diff</command> commands.</para>
