+The `unix` Package [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ghc/packages-unix.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ghc/packages-unix)
+==================
+
+See [`unix` on Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/unix) for
+more information.
+
+Installing from Git
+-------------------
+
+To build this package using Cabal directly from Git, you must run
+`autoreconf -i` before the usual Cabal build steps (`cabal
+{configure,build,install}`). The program `autoreconf` is part of
+[GNU autoconf](http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/). There is no
+need to run the `configure` script: `cabal configure` will do this for
+you.
