+libmagic installation
+=====================
+
+Mahoro is a wrapper around libmagic[1], so it needs the libmagic
+development headers and libraries to run. If your operating system
+provides libmagic development libraries and headers, you will not need
+the "--with-magic*" command-line options below.
+
+For Debian-based systems: apt-get install libmagic-dev
+For CentOS 6.x or similar RPM-based systems: yum install file-devel
+For CentOS 5.x or similar RPM-based systems: yum install file
+
