+/*! \page page_build Build Instructions and Information
+
+\section dependencies Dependencies
+
+The list of GNU Radio dependencies and the minimum required versions,
+if any, to build the various GNU Radio components.
+
+Most of these components do not need to be individually compiled or
+installed. Instead, rely on your operating system's package manager or
+binary installation process (the <b>apt-get</b> system in Debian and
+Ubuntu, <b>yum</b> in RedHat and Fedora, etc.). GNU Radio tries to keep an
+up-to-date build guide for the majority of the supported operating
+systems on gnuradio.org
+(http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/BuildGuide).
+
+Not all dependencies are required for all components, and not all
+components are required for a given installation. The list of required
+components is determined by what the user requires from GNU Radio. If,
+for example, you do not use any Comedi-based hardware, do not worry
+about building gr-comedi.

+\section build_gr_cmake Building GNU Radio
+
+GNU Radio is built using the Cmake build system
+(http://www.cmake.org/). The standard build method is as follows:
+
+\code
+$ mkdir $(builddir)
+$ cd $(builddir)
+$ cmake [OPTIONS] $(srcdir)
+$ make
+$ make test
+$ sudo make install
+\endcode
+
+The \$(builddir) is the directory in which the code is built. This
+<b>cannot</b> be the same path as where the source code resides. Often,
+\$(builddir) is \$(srcdir)/build.
+
+Options can be used to specify where to find various library or
+include file dependencies that are not automatically being found
+(-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH) or set the prefix
+(-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=(dir)).
+
+Components can also be enabled and disabled through the options. For a
+component named *gr-comp*, the option to disable would look like:
+-DENABLE_GR_COMP=off. The "off" could also be "false" or "no", and
+cmake is not case sensitive about these options. Similarly, "true",
+"on", or "yes" will turn this component on. All components are enabled
+by default.
+
+
+\subsection build_gr_cmake_e100 Building for the E100
+
+To build GNU Radio on the Ettus Research E100 embedded platforms,
+Cmake has to know that the processors uses the NEON extensions. Use
+the
+
+\code
+cmake -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING="-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -g" \
+      -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS:STRING="-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -g" \
+       <gr_source_dir>
+\endcode
+
+
+\section build_old_autotools Building Using Old Autotools Method
+
+As of version 3.5, we have moved to using Cmake as the default,
+preferred build system. If for some reason, Cmake fails on your
+system, GNU Radio still includes the old autotools build process as a
+parallel build method. To build:
+
+\code
+$ cd $(srcdir)
+$ ./bootstrap   // only if not building from a tarball
+$ cd $(builddir)
+$ $(srcdir)/configure [options]
+$ make [-jN]
+$ make check
+$ sudo make install
+\endcode
