+* GNU/Linux development packages
+
+Many GNU/Linux systems do not come with development packages by
+default; they just include the files that you need to run Emacs, but
+not those you need to compile it.  For example, to compile Emacs with
+X11 support, you may need to install the special `X11 development'
+package (`xlibs-dev' on Debian).
