+- no library dependencies, all required code is contained in the package
 - for building, a modern C++ compiler is required (successfully tested with
   g++ 5.4 clang 4.0 and Intel icpc 17.0)
-- for building from the Git repository, GNU autotools are required
 
 ### System-wide installation
 
 -   Install dependencies for building:
 
-        sudo apt-get install g++ autoconf libtool git
+        sudo apt-get install g++ git python
 
 -   Install pyHealpix:
 
-        git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/ift/pyHealpix.git
-        (cd pyHealpix && autoreconf -i && ./configure --enable-openmp --enable-native-optimizations && make -j4 && sudo make install)
+        git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/ift/pyHealpix.git -b setuptools_test
+        (cd pyHealpix && python setup.py install)
 
 ### Local installation for a single user
 
 -   Install dependencies for building:
 
-        sudo apt-get install g++ autoconf libtool git
+        sudo apt-get install g++ git python
 
 -   Install pyHealpix:
 
-        git clone https://gitlab.mpcdf.mpg.de/ift/pyHealpix.git
-        (cd pyHealpix && autoreconf -i && ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local --enable-openmp --enable-native-optimizations && make -j4 install)

-### Installation on OS X

--   Install pyHealpix:

-    (The last command installs the package system-wide. User-specific
-    installation would be preferrable, but we haven't found a simple recipe yet
-    how to determine the installation prefix ...)
