-# Setup this repo
+# Rul's dotfiles
 
-Setup my dotfiles with the `setup` script. Note that it depends on
-`pycombine`, a script for combining directories with symlinks, which
-can be found in my `home-bin` repo.

-#  Installing Emacs dependencies
+##  Install dependencies
 
 Install the following dependencies before attempting to run my emacs
 configuration. It should work for Debian 10 or later:
 
-    sudo apt-get install $(grep -ri 'Debian packages:' .emacs .emacs.local.d/ | awk -F:  '{print $3}' | tr '\n' ' ')
+    sudo apt-get build-dep .
+
+# Setup my dotfiles running:
 
-If Debian packages aren't available, we use Elpa packages. At some
-point I should create Debian packages for these.
+    make
 
-    emacs-pkg-install $(grep -ri 'Elpa packages:' .emacs .emacs.local.d/ | awk -F: '{print $3}' | tr '\n' ' ')
+## Notes
 
-The first time you open emacs after installing these packages, a bunch
-of warnings will be printed. You can dismiss them; they'll only appear
-on the first run.
+Emacs may print some warnings on the first run. We can dismiss them;
+they'll only appear on the first run.
