 Normally, to build and install GnuCash, all you have to do is:
 
   # ./configure
-  # make depend
   # make
   # make install
 
-You can also build GnuCash in a seperate directory, which is
-useful if you are compiling for several platforms from a
-single copy of the source tree:
+You can build Motif, Gnome, and Qt versions.
+Depending on your make target, you'll produce:
 
-  # mkdir BUILD
-  # mkdir BUILD/debug
-  # cd BUILD/debug
-  # ../../configure --enable-debug
-  # make depend
-  # make
-  # make install
+  gnucash.motif
+  gnucash.motif.static
+  gnucash.gnome
+  gnucash.gnome.static
+  gnucash.qt
 
-sorry, no "make install" yet.
+Whichever one you produce last ends up the target of a local
+gnucash.bin symlink, so that you can always run the local ./gnucash
+script to see the last flavor that you built.  The ./gnucash script
+also handles making sure that you're using files from the source dir
+rather than an install tree just like the old ./xacc script did.
 
-The current version requires glibc2.0 (libc.so.6) to link.  
-It uses the open_memstream() call, which first shows up 
-in glibc-6.0. 
+You'll use "make install" when you want to do a normal FSSTND /usr/ or
+/usr/local style install where everything scatters across the
+filesystem in foo/gnucash/* directories.  You'll use "make
+install-opt" when you want a /usr/local/opt/gnucash style install
+where everything just installs into local bin, doc, share, etc dirs.
+I couldn't think of a better way to handle this, or I would have used
+it.
+
+So the two most likely sets of build instructions would be as follows:
+
+  For a full system install (gnucash is installed as part of the
+  system):
+
+    ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
+    make motif
+    make install
+
+  For an /opt style install
+
+    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/opt/gnucash
+    make motif
+    make install-opt
