+tooling for mass package installation
+-------------------------------------
+
+TL;DR (as root or with sudo):
+
+        ./install/deps.perl all                # install everything
+        ./install/deps.perl lei                # only what's needed for lei
+        ./install/deps.perl www-search        # for hosting WWW search
+
+Files in this directory are designed for:
+
+* users running our code from git or tarballs (and not the OS package manager)
+
+* lazy users who can't be bothered to read all of INSTALL
+
+* automated testing scripts (see ci/README)
