## building it yourself
-git-annex can be built for Android, with `make android`.
-You need <https://github.com/neurocyte/ghc-android> installed first,
-and also have to `cabal install` all necessary dependencies. This is not
-yet an easy process.
-
-You also need to install git and all the utilities listed on [[fromscratch]].
-
-You will need to have the Android SDK and NDK installed; see
-`standalone/android/Makefile` to configure the paths to them. You'll also
-need ant, and the JDK.
-
-Then to build the full Android app bundle, use `make androidapp`
+git-annex can be built for Android, with `make android`. It's not an easy
+process:
+
+* First, install <https://github.com/neurocyte/ghc-android>.
+* You also need to install git and all the utilities listed on [[fromscratch]],
+ on the system doing the building.
+* Use ghc-android's cabal to install all necessary dependencies.
+ Some packages will fail to install on Android; patches to fix them
+ are in `standalone/android/haskell-patches/`
+* You will need to have the Android SDK and NDK installed; see
+ `standalone/android/Makefile` to configure the paths to them. You'll also
+ need ant, and the JDK.
+* Then to build the full Android app bundle, use `make androidapp`
