38	    You can obtain DB by visiting the Berkeley DB download page: 
39        <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/db/index.html" target="_top">http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/berkeley-db/db/index.html</a>.
40     </p>
41      <p>
42        To install DB, untar or unzip the distribution to the directory of
43        your choice. You will then need to build the product binaries.
44        For information on building DB, see 
45            <span class="emphasis"><em>DB_INSTALL</em></span><tt class="literal">/docs/index.html</tt>,
46        where <span class="emphasis"><em>DB_INSTALL</em></span> is the directory where you unpacked
47	    DB. On that page, you will find links to platform-specific build
48        instructions.
49    </p>
50      <p>
51        That page also contains links to more documentation for DB. In
52        particular, you will find links for the 
53        <i class="citetitle">Berkeley DB Programmer's Reference Guide</i> 
54        as well as the API reference documentation.
