+bzr can optionally use compiled versions of some parts of the code
+for increased speed. When installing bzr you need the ability to
+build C extensions. Some Linux distributions package the necessary
+headers separately from the main Python package. This package is
+probably named something like python-dev or python-devel. FreeBSD,
+Windows, source-based Linux distributions, and possibly other operating
+systems, have the required files installed by default.
+
+If you are installing bzr from a bzr branch rather than a release tarball,
+then you should also have the Pyrex package installed. This is not necessary
+for release tarballs as they already contain the C files that Pyrex is needed
+to create.
