+Note that GNUN expects @file{GNUmakefile}, @file{config.mk} and
address@hidden to be @emph{present} under @file{server/gnun} of the
+`www' web repository, otherwise @command{make} has no way to know what
+and how should be built.  Since the location of the repository working
+copy is strictly user-specific and cannot be determined in any way,
address@hidden and @file{config.mk} must be copied there manually
+after the package installation.  For convenience, these files are
+installed in @samp{$(pkgdatadadir)} (@file{/usr/local/share/gnun} with
+the default @samp{prefix}) so you can just create symlinks pointing to
+them, e.g.:
+
address@hidden
+ln -s /usr/local/share/gnun/config.mk /path/to/www/server/gnun/
+ln -s /usr/local/share/gnun/GNUmakefile /path/to/www/server/gnun/

+
+If next GNUN releases are installed with the same @option{--prefix}, you
+will always use the latest versions without the need for any manual
+intervention.
+
+If you are playing with non-gnu.org setup, you also have to take care of
address@hidden and put a modified version under @file{server/gnun} of
+your hypothetical tree.  (For gnu.org, that is not necessary since
+a proper @file{gnun.mk} is maintained in `www'.)
