 Bootstrapping VLC
 =================
 
-If you retrieved VLC from the SVN server and do not have a "configure"
-script, please refer to the HACKING file.
+If you retrieved VLC from the git server and do not have yet a "configure"
+script, please run:
+
+    ./bootstrap
 
 Configuring VLC
 ===============
 
 A typical way to configure VLC is:
 
-   ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-wxwindows
+   ./configure
 
 See `./configure --help' for more information.
 
 If you intend to debug stuff, you may want to compile with debugging
 symbols:
 
-   make distclean ; ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-wxwindows --enable-debug
+   make distclean ; ./configure --enable-debug
+
+We recommend using GCC to build VLC, though some people reported success
+with the Intel C compiler (version 8) as well. GCC version 3.3 or higher is
+required. On older systems (e.g. FreeBSD 4.x), please select a more recent
+version manually by setting the CC and CXX environment variables
+appropriately while running the ./configure shell script.
 
 
 Building VLC
 ============
 
-Have a look at the generated Makefile.opts file, you may want to choose
-which modules will be compiled as plugins, and which ones will remain in
-the core application. The configure script tries to guess for you.
-
 Once configured, run `make' to build VLC.
