   - The Java Runtime (JRE) included in binaries from Greenstone 3.07 onward is version 7 and version 8 for Greenstone 3.11 onward. For 32 bit linux binaries, the included JRE is 32 bit and for 64 bit linux binaries the JRE is 64 bit. //If you have set up a system Java of a version different from the JRE included//, then \\

   - Download the Source Distribution for your Operating System and extract it into the location where you want Greenstone installed. For Linux/Mac, download the tar.gz version as zip doesn't preserve necessary file permissions.
-  - Make sure JAVA_HOME is set (to JDK 7 for Greenstone 3.06) and that its ''bin'' folder is added to the PATH. If you're on a 64 bit machine you need a JDK for 64 bit machines, if you're on a 32 bit machine, you will need a JDK for 32 bit machines. Also set ANT_HOME to an ant installation and add its ''bin'' folder to the PATH.

   - Most of the linux and mac machines we tested require the gnome-lib extension. Without it, if compiling fails with an error message about ''wvware'', then it means you need the gnome-lib extension. You can grab it by visiting http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/gs2-extensions/gnome-lib/trunk, selecting the link to the ''gnome-lib-minimal'' version for your operating system and architecture, then clicking on the download link on the subsequent page. Download it into your extracted Greenstone 3's ''gs2build/ext'' folder.
   - Use the terminal to extract the downloaded gnome-lib-minimal extension and set up the gnome-lib environment for compiling as follows:\\ <code>
 cd gs2build/ext
-tar -xvzf gnome-lib-minimal-<your-OS-version>.tar.gz
+cd gnome-lib
-cd gnome-lib-minimal
+# gnome-lib can take longer to compile.
+# Alternatively, if you had internet access and
+# had grabbed and extracted gnome-lib-minimal tarball as above, then:
+#tar -xvzf gnome-lib-minimal-<your-OS-version>.tar.gz
+#cd gnome-lib-minimal
