+How to compile this.
+--------------------
+1. libdbm
+
+arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
+users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
+DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
+is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
+database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.
+
+2. make
+
+The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
+contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
+on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
+
+3. include/uapi
+
+This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
+the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
+if you have special requirements and need to point at different
+kernel include files.
