[Booki-dev] Installing objavi

Thu Jul 7 15:12:54 PDT 2011

Jean-Noël,

Yeah, I wrote those instructions for my own book and somehow they found
their way into the official guide.  I don't maintain that guide.  The
chapter I wrote is here:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/e-book-enlightenment/a-booki-of-your-own/

I've updated the git URL and some other things and when I'm satisfied that
the instructions are correct I'll make another PDF for the Internet Archive.
