+The following steps assume all dependencies are installed.
+
+First, unpack the Anastasis tarball and change into
+the resulting directory.
+Then, use the following commands to build and install Anastasis:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ ./configure [--prefix=PFX] \
+ [--with-gnunet=GNUNETPFX] \
+ [--with-exchange=EXCHANGEPFX]
+ $ # Each dependency can be fetched from non standard locations via
+ $ # the '--with-<LIBNAME>' option. See './configure --help'.
+ $ make
+ # make install
+
+If you did not specify a prefix, Anastasis will be installed to
+``/usr/local``, which requires you to run the last step as ``root``.
+
+You have to specify ``--with-exchange=/usr/local`` and/or
+``--with-gnunet=/usr/local`` if you installed the exchange and/or
+GNUnet to ``/usr/local`` in the previous steps.
+
+Depending on the prefixes you specified for the installation and the
+distribution you are using, you may have to edit ``/etc/ld.so.conf``, adding
+lines for ``GNUNETPFX/lib/`` and ``EXCHANGEPFX/lib/`` and ``PFX/lib/``
+(replace the prefixes with the actual paths you used). Afterwards, you should
+run ``ldconfig``. Without this step, it is possible that the linker may not
+find the installed libraries and launching the Anastasis backend would
+then fail.
